    "US CUSTOMER CONTACTED CEPHEID TO DISCUSS PATIENT RESULTS FOR XPERT XPRESS SARS-COV-2/FLU/RSV TESTED ON THE GENEXPERT INSTRUMENT. CUSTOMER COLLECTED SAMPLE 1 FROM PATIENT ON (B)(6) 2021, WHICH WAS TESTED ON XPERT XPRESS SARS-COV-2. RESULTS WERE RETURNED AS SARS-COV-2 NEGATIVE RESULTS NOT REPORTED TO PHYSICIAN. PATIENT 1 SAMPLE 1 REPEAT 1 OCCURRED ON (B)(6) 2021, WHICH WAS TESTED ON XPERT XPRESS SARS-COV-2/FLU/RSV TEST AND RESULTED AS SARS-COV-2 POSITIVE /FLU A NEGATIVE/FLU B NEGATIVE/RSV NEGATIVE RESULTS REPORTED TO THE PHYSICIAN. ROOT CAUSE IS CONTAMINATION AND/OR CARRYOVER. THERE IS NO EVIDENCE OF PRODUCT MALFUNCTION AND NO REPORT OF PATIENT HARM. FALSE POSITIVE RESULTS FOR SARS-COV-2 COULD LEAD TO INCORRECT MANAGEMENT OF SYMPTOMATIC PATIENTS, INCLUDING UNNECESSARY ISOLATION OR QUARANTINE, MISALLOCATION OF RESOURCES, DELAYED DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT FOR OTHER INFECTIONS OR HEALTH CONDITIONS, OR UNNECESSARY ANTIVIRAL TREATMENT. CEPHEID'S PATIENT SAFETY BOARD CONSULT CONFIRMED WITH THE CUSTOMER THAT THERE WAS NO ASSOCIATED PATIENT HARM OR CHANGE TO PATIENT TREATMENT. RESULTS ARE FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF SARS-COV-2 RNA. AS PER SECTION 3 OF XPERT XPERT XPRESS SARS-COV-2 EUA IFU; POSITIVE RESULTS ARE INDICATIVE OF THE PRESENCE OF SARS-COV-2; CLINICAL CORRELATION WITH PATIENT HISTORY AND OTHER DIAGNOSTIC INFORMATION IS NECESSARY TO DETERMINE PATIENT INFECTION STATUS. DEVICE EVALUATED BY MANUFACTURER - ANSWER OF NO IS DUE TO THE SINGLE USE OF THE XPERT XPRESS SARS-COV-2 TEST AND THE UNAVAILABILITY OF THAT PRODUCT LOT TO BE RETURNED TO CEPHEID."
