    Description

    Brand Name: VITROS Product Name: VITROS 4600 Chemistry System Model/Catalog Number: (1) 6802445, (2) 6900440 Software Version: version 3.2 to version 3.8.3 (all available software versions) Product Description: In vitro diagnostic chemistry analyzer.

    Reason

    a software anomaly allows test results to be reported using Micro Tip and Micro Slide diluent packs that the system treats as expired even when the Use Expired Reagents setting is not enabled if a shelf expiration date is omitted during manual loading. The issue was identified by a customer complaint, in which a CREA Urine test was processed with an RE (Reagent Expired) code, even though the diluent pack was not expired and the use-expired-reagents setting was disabled. This can result in erroneous test results and/or delaying test results.

Catalogue number 6900440 is used to denote VITROS 4600 Chemistry System- refurbished. A VITROS 4600 Chemistry System maintains its original serial number through the refurbishment process. Therefore, the manufacturing and distribution information for the two catalogue numbers will be combined. Note2: When manufactured, the system s serial numbers are sequential, but not all analyzers are released for distribution and therefore not installed. The range of serial numbers provided includes the identified minimum and maximum in serial numbers associated with all currently installed systems. Therefore, the amount of each system manufactured may not equal the amount of each system installed. Additionally, not all serial numbers listed are associated with an active installed analyzer in use today. Note3: The value given for "Product Quantity Distributed" is the total number of active installed systems that are in use today. This number is known to fluctuate as individual systems are installed and/or decommissioned.
