The product has a software problem; it does not calculate the Creatinine Clearance correctly for patients less than two years old.
On 3/6/2009, a Safety Advisory Letter was distributed to all affected users, with a description of the problem and identifying the affected product. Customers were instructed not to use the LANTIS to calculate Creatine Clearance for any patient under two years of age. Customers should direct their questions with regards to the letter to their local Siemens Service organization. A Siemens Representative will update the systems.
