Reason for Recall

A software defect affecting VITROS Systems running VITROS Software Versions 3.8.1 causes QC baseline statistics to not update as expected when changed by the user. This may cause erroneous patient results to be reported.

Firm Action

On January 26, 2024, the firm sent a customer letter to all customers who have V3.8.1 installed on their VITROS Analyzer. Customers were informed of this issue and instructed to follow the instructions when using the VITROS System onboard QC package to update the QC baseline. The software will be updated to mitigate both issues within the VITROS Software QC feature. The estimated availability is 2Q2024. If you have further questions, please contact Global Services Organization at 1-800-421-3311.
