Description

Advia Chemistry Calibrator For in vitro diagnostic use in the calibration of ADVIA¿ Chemistry systems for the following methods: Albumin (ALB, ALB_c), Direct Bilirubin (DBIL_2), Total Bilirubin (TBIL_2), Calcium (CA, CA_c, CA_2, CA_2c), Cholesterol (CHOL), Creatinine (CREA, CREA_2, CRE_2c, ECRE_2), Glucose Hexakinase (GLUH), Glucose Oxidase (GLUO), Iron (IRON_2), Lithium (LITH), Magnesium (MG, MG_c), Phosphorus - inorganic (IP, IP_c), Total Protein (TP, TP_c), Triglycerides (TRIG), Urea Nitrogen (UN, UN_c), Uric Acid (UA, UA_c)

Reason

Siemens has confirmed that the DBIL_2 Assigned Calibrator Values (ACV) currently assigned to the affected lots may cause, on average, a positive proportional bias of approximately 41% on patient samples compared to the reference method for Direct Bilirubin measurement.
