- Reason
- Enabling sending of preliminary/initial results on the ADVIA Chemistry XPT creates a risk that a critical result could be overwritten by the same result rather than showing the repeated result on CentraLink. A result could be erroneous and critical and appear to be verified upon repeat.
- Root cause
- Under Investigation by firm
- Action
- A Siemens service provider visited each site to verify and/or update customer configuration on the ADVIA Chemistry XPT and CentraLink Systems to ensure proper reporting of results. An Urgent Medical Device Correction letter was issued on December 16, 2014 to all affected customers. Customers were also provided a Customer Bulletin providing instructions on how configuration setting should remain.
