    Description

    BIOFIRE Blood Culture Identification 2 (BCID2) Panel, REF: RFIT-ASY-0147, for FILMARRAY Systems, when used in conjunction with Culture Media Bottles: BACT/ALERT FA PLUS, REF: 410851, and BACT/ALERT PF PLUS, REF: 410853

    Reason

    If blood culture identification panel is used in conjunction with specific lots of culture media bottles, then false positive Serratia marcescens results may occur, due to an increased level of non-viable organism from serratia marcescens targets in culture media bottles, false positive result may lead to an inappropriate change in patient therapy.
