  • Causa
    An overall assessment was initiated for all etest molecules for clinical use. this work included reviewing the current stability support data. this includes the data from the previous manufacturer, the stability data generated by the routine stability program and the data generated through the change controls performed on some molecules. there are 3 different presentations, depending on the molecule: foam (foam cartridge): 30 or 100 strips; blister (30 or 100 strips) and single pack (30 individual strips). we emphasize that a capa (corrective and preventive action) was opened at the product manufacturer site to investigate and determine the root cause of this problem and that further stability studies are underway / have been completed to redefine the shelf life of the attached related references . in due time, they must return to the market with revised expiration dates. patient outcomes may also be elevated, presenting false-resistant or false-sensitive results.
