  • Causa
    Opti medical has identified that when so2 is below 80%, the bias on the thb is outside of their claims for measurement accuracy. the calculated parameters, hct and o2 (ct) are also significantly affected by the thb issue. the root cause is due to a shift in the wavelength of one of the lasers used to measure thb and so2. the shift occurred when opti switched suppliers of the laser.
  • Acción
    End users are advised not to report tHb results from the affected device or use an alternative method to measure tHb when SO2 is below 80%. The Hct and O2(ct) calculated parameters should also not be reported when SO2 is below 80%. Users are strongly recommend to review patient tHb results when SO2 results were below 80% to determine if any adverse events have occurred. A software update is being developed to correct the issue.
