- On 6/27/05, Abbott sent the customer letter via FedEx to all XSYSTEMS Multiconstituent Controls customers that received List Number 9687-12 lots 17270M100 and/or 18177M300 and/or AxSYM Opiates reagents (List Number 3B25-20) since June 01, 2004. The letters explained that the multiconstituent control ranges for morphine were not updated in the MCC Accesory insert at the same time they were updated in the AxSYM Opiates reagent package insert in 2004. The accounts were requested to review their current control ranges for the AxSYM Opiates assay, and verify that they are using either the control ranges in the AxSYM Opiates reagent package insert or control ranges established by their facility. They were also instructed to follow their facility''s normal policies and procedures for communicating with health care providers served by their laboratory. The accounts were requested to complete and return the enclosed reply sheet acknowledging the receipt of the letter and the dissemination of the letter to the laboratory manager/supervisor responsible for the assays.
