| Reason for the Action |
QuidelOrtho has reported a problem affecting VITROS Chemistry Products Ca Slides. It has been observed that users may experience a higher rate of calibration failures when attempting to calibrate these slides on VITROS XT 3400 Chemistry Systems and VITROS XT 7600 Integrated Systems. Specifically, Generations 67 and above of the VITROS Ca Slides are more likely to trigger Condition Code TH4-63J during calibration.
This code is generated when the REFLECTOMETER detects image variations that exceed the assay limits defined on the Assay Data Disk (ADD), potentially resulting in calibration failure.
The problem may lead to delays in obtaining patient results due to the time required to troubleshoot failed calibrations, which could impact patient management depending on the length of the delay and the clinical urgency of the test. |
