  • Acción
    Sending alert letter. CN code PH 16-003. Risk classification III (situation in which there is a low probability that the use or exposure to a health product may have adverse health consequences). Recommendation to users and patients: Attention should be paid to interfering levels (such as hemolysis and jaundice), since false coagulation time may be due to these conditions. An irregular reaction can be visually identified by the outcome curve. Siemens is working on an advanced algorithm to identify the curves and after finalizing the validation activities the alorithm in question will be implemented.
