Reason for Recall

The Spanish and Swedish language versions of the IFU state that the assay can be tested with Plasma which is false and could result in biased results.

Firm Action

An Urgent Product Correction letter was sent on April 1, 2020 to affected customers stating that the Spanish and Swedish IFU versions for the VITROS CK-MB slides incorrectly included plasma as a sample type in the Intended Use section. Customers were instructed to complete and return the Confirmation of Receipt form then, determine whether the effected IFUs were being used in their laboratory and identify any plasma samples that were taken while using those instructions for use. The laboratory directors should determine how to handle the assays that used plasma samples. The firm directed customers to go to the Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics website to download the updated Spanish and Swedish IFUs.
