Reason/Issue |
A limited number of kits may result in excessive sample leakage out of the test device cartridge. If this occurs, the VerifyNow performance results are not affected as the leakage occurs "downstream" of where the reaction occurs and operators are protected by the universal precautions for blood products; however, the instrument can potentially be affected. |
