Samples containing high levels of ALKP (or an interfering substance) could deplete the available substrate in the reagent layer of a VITROS ALKP Slide and not post the substrate deleption (DP) code, which may result in the System reporting an incorrect value (lower than the actual value), which may result in missed or delayed diagnosis of liver disease.

Gallant HF Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator: HF CRT-D REF CDHFA500Q Neutrino HF Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator: NxT HF CRT-D REF CDHFA600Q Entrant HF Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator : HF CRT-D REF CDHFA300Q The primary function of ICDs and CRT-Ds are to treat life-threatening ventricular tachyarrhythmias via anti-tachycardia pacing (ATP), or cardioversion/defibrillation. Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators (ICDs) can either be a dual chamber (also known as DR if rate responsive) device that is connected to a right atrial (RA) pacing lead and right ventricular defibrillation lead or single chamber ICD (also known as VR if rate responsive) with only a defibrillation lead in the right ventricle (RV). The ICD, more generally known as an implantable pulse generator (IPG), is typically implanted in a subcutaneous device pocket located in the pectoral region and is attached to the pacing/defibrillator leads that are implanted through the transvenous technique with the distal tips positioned in the RA (dual chamber) and RV. Cardiac Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator (CRT-D) systems consist of a right atrial (RA) pacing lead, a right ventricular (RV) defibrillation lead, as well as a third lead placed in the coronary venous system overlying the left ventricle (LV) to improve ventricular resynchronization through biventricular pacing for treatment of heart failure. CRT-D devices, more generally known as an implantable pulse generator (IPG), are typically implanted in a subcutaneous device pocket located in the pectoral region and are attached to the pacing/defibrillator leads that are implanted through transvenous technique.

Class I - Dangerous

Due to Bluetooth malfunction on a subset of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillator (ICD) and Cardia Resynchronization Therapy Defibrillator *CRT-D) devices that were manufactured prior to April 2022 as a result of crystal component issue within the Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) circuit. This results in the device entering an inductive telemetry only mode with loss of Bluetooth communication. In some instances, thought BLE communication is unavailable, the circuit may remain in a state which draws excessive power affecting battery longevity.

there has been a transcription error in the Instructions for Use (IFU) for the Liquid Assayed Chemistry Control Premium Plus Level 3. For Caeruloplasmin, the one and two standard deviation values printed on the sheet are incorrect, which may lead to misreporting patient results. Target and range values are correct, and risk is mitigated; most clinical labs will use the target and range values in clinical practice.

LANDAUER received reports indicating that some nanoDots may potentially be outside of the specified range of +/-5.5% accuracy. Investigation of nanoDots indicated the presence of a potential non-conformance in the Optical Stimulated Luminescence (OSL) material that is beamed after exposure and emits fluorescence proportional to radiation exposure.
