Reason
Incorrect results: The Sure-Vue Serum/Urine hCG-STAT test, when interpreted at extended read times, may exhibit sensitivity to patient samples containing hCG at levels well below the cut-off, potentially resulting in a false positive interpretation by the user.
Root cause
Labeling design
Action
Inverness Medical sent an Urgent Medical Device Alert letter, dated October 1, 2007, to all Innovacon customers for the product via US Postal Service return receipt requested. The field correction notice removed the extended read time of 10 minutes. Customers were instructed to note that although the package insert currently allows interpretation up to 10 minutes, do not read at times greater than 3 minutes for urine and 5 minutes for serum.
