  • Causa
    A small number of multi-reagent cassettes in affected lots have been found with labels containing product information on the wrong side of the cassette. the use of affected multi-reagent cassettes may lead to false negative or false positive results, causing a potential misclassification of the patient or donor blood groups or rh/k phenotypes or incorrect antibody detection results.  this may be of particular clinical concern where there is no confirmation of the group (e.G. in testing of newborns or where reverse grouping is not in place). ortho clinical diagnostics have sent out a field safety notice having identified the cause of the manufacturing issue.
  • Acción
    Do not use and quarantine products from affected lots received prior to 5 July 2013.  Contact the manufacturer urgently for replacement product. Products from affected lots received prior to 5 July 2013 should be used only where no alternative stock is available and must be inspected prior to use (see manufacturer’s Field Safety Notice). Discard products from affected lots received prior to 5 July 2013 once replacement stock is available for use. Consider the need to review patient results from the affected lots. As part of your look back process, report any incorrect results to the MHRA and Ortho Clinical Diagnostics.
