    Additional Manufacturer Narrative · 1

    AN INTERNAL BIOMÉRIEUX INVESTIGATION WAS PERFORMED. DURING THE INVESTIGATION, THE ISSUE WAS REPRODUCED WITH SAMPLES BUT WITH A LOWER FREQUENCY. THE ANALYSIS OF DATA PROVIDED BY CUSTOMERS SHOWED THAT THESE ERRORS WERE RANDOMLY DISTRIBUTED WITHIN THE RUN SEQUENCES AND THE SAMPLE POSITIONS. INVESTIGATION WITH THE DISPOSABLE SUPPLIER REVEALED NO ISSUE IN RAW MATERIALS USE. THE ISSUE INVOLVES RISK OF DELAYED RESULTS FOR THE PATIENTS, BUT NOT FALSE RESULTS. AS MENTIONED IN THE EASYMAG USER MANUAL, THE USE OF AN INTERNAL CONTROL IS RECOMMENDED IN ORDER TO DETECT POTENTIAL NUCLEIC ACID EXTRACTION ISSUE. ALL ERRORS THAT OCCUR DURING THE RUNS CAN BE FOUND IN THE RESULTS REPORT.
