- Action
- Siemens Healthcare issued an "Urgent Medical Device Correction (UMDC IMC 22-09.A.US)" to US customers, and an "Urgent Field Safety Notice (UFSN IMC 22-09.A.OUS)" to Outside the US (OUS) customers. The UMDC and UFSN letters provide instructions to customers to follow: When this issue occurs, there is a potential for erroneously depressed patient results. This may lead to a delayed follow up of patients with clinical autoimmune thyroid. Mitigations would include correlation of tests results with additional tests such as anti-TPO antibodies along with thyroid function tests such as total T3 and T4, free T3 and T4 and TSH results. A review of previously generated results is not recommended as results would not be used in isolation. Actions to be Taken by the Customer: Please review this letter with your Medical Director. Discontinue use of and discard the Kit Lot listed in Table 1. Review your inventory of this product to determine your laboratory's replacement needs and to provide information to Siemens for reporting to the authorities.
