Description

enGen Laboratory Automation System (Product Code ENGEN) configured with Thermo Scientific Centrifuge Module and TCAutomation Software Version 3.6.1 and Below; IVD. --- Thermo Scientific Centrifuge Module has Product Code 952040-EG 6844097. The VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry System with enGen Laboratory Automation System is intended for use in the in vitro quantitative measurement of a variety of analytes of clinical interest, using both VITROS Chemistry Products Slides (colorimetric endpoint, rate, ion-selective electrode, and immunorate methods) and VITROS Chemistry Products MicroTip liquid reagents (spectrophotometric and spectrophotometric immunoassay methods).

Reason

Ortho confirmed that it is possible for the mis-association of sample identification and assay results due to an error with Thermo Fishers centrifuge module. It is possible for mis-associated assay results to be reported from the laboratory prior to the identification of the Cross Check error on the enGen Laboratory Automation System. Assay results associated with the wrong patient and reported out of the laboratory could lead to inappropriate intervention with the potential for serious injury to the patient.
