ARTG Number: 216895
Recall Action Level Hospital
Recall Action Classification Class II
Recall Action Commencement Date 13/10/2015
Responsible Entity PerkinElmer
Reason/Issue The issue was caused by an unintended rounding of the median equation factors that led to inadequate number of significant digits (decimals) in the default median equation. The equation was originally introduced in LifeCycle version v4.0 Rev4. Due to the issue, the Inhibin A MoM level of an unaffected population was observed to be approximately half from what it should have been.
This unintended rounding error was observed internally and no customer complaints have been received.
