Reason
Incorrect Reagent Status-When a new cartridge of Infinity Lithium Reagent is loaded on to the UniCel DxC System, the Reagent Status screen will incorrectly show 'Days Left' as 21. The correct Reagent Status for a new Lithium reagent cartridge is 14 days. Lithium reagent used past 14 days may produce low quality control and/or patient results.
Root cause

Action
A Product Correction Action (PCA) letter was sent the week of May 15, 2006 to all Unicel DxC customers informing them not to leave any Lithium reagent cartridge onboard a UniCel DxC System past 14 days. They also were instructed to complete and return the enclosed response form. The Letter was sent by US Mail.
