  • Causa
    Randox has confirmed that acth in immunoassay premium plus quality control and immunoassay premium quality control does not meet the quoted reconstituted stability claim in the product ifu. randox now recommends that acth is to be assayed immediately after the 30-minute reconstitution procedure.The quality control results which are not within range can lead to a delay in reporting acth results. acth is typically measured to aid in diagnosing the cause of abnormal cortisol. abnormal cortisol levels are generally not associated with immediate life threatening disorders. therefore a delay in acth reporting is unlikely to pose a serious risk to health.
  • Acción
    1. Place a copy of the supplied notice in all impacted control kits, advising to assay ACTH immediately after the reconstitution procedure is complete. 2. Discuss the contents of the notice with the Medical Director.
