Recall Details
- Company:
- Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics
- Reason for Recall:
- The ADVIA 120 optics cover or hood is located on the very top of the ADVIA 120 analyzer. When the optics cover is raised, it is supported by two gas struts (SMN 10309266) attached to the cover on the left and right sides. Over time, it is possible that these struts may lose their effectiveness and fail to support the optics cover in the open position. This could cause the cover to fall during maintenance procedures.
- Classification:
- Class I - Dangerous
Dangerous or defective products that predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
- Status:
- terminated

Dimension Creatinine Flex reagent cartridge. Material Number: 10872079.
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is recalling certain lots of Dimension Creatinine Flex reagent cartridge (Dimension CRE2) because a potential imprecision in the Dimension CRE2 quality control (QC) and patient sample results using lot numbers GA6307 and BA7005 on the Dimension System. This imprecision may lead to erroneously decreased or increased creatinine patient results
Atellica CH Enzymatic Hemoglobin A1c (A1c_E); Siemens Material Number (SMN): 11097536;
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics
A potential for depressed results for Atellica CH A1c_E when processing Atellica CH RCRP on the same analyzer. Customers processing A1c_E and RCRP on separate analyzers are not impacted by the recall. The frequency and magnitude of the negative bias and imprecision increase over time and are not consistent with the assay Instructions For Use (IFU). When this issue is present, Quality Control (QC) results demonstrate a negative trend and increased imprecision. The clinical impact of a negative (A1c_E) bias may lead to a delay in diagnosis for diabetes or lead to less-than-optimal treatment for existing diabetes.
