| Reason/Issue |
Ortho Clinical Diagnostics has confirmed that some barcode labels included in some VITROS Calibrator Kit 25, Lot 2576 cartons contain an incorrect lot number. The labels indicate Lot 2575 instead of the correct Lot 2576 for all three calibrator levels. The printed barcode labels are used with the automatic calibration feature when calibrating VITROS 4600 or 5600 Systems. When the operator attempts to use the affected barcode labels to calibrate VITROS dHDL Slides, a ‘PZC-006’ condition code occurs, indicating that the Calibrator Lot is not supported by the Assay Data Disk (ADD); therefore the calibration is not successful. All labelling on the calibrator vials and the carton is correct. Lot 2576 calibrators perform as expected if the operator manually programs the correct lot information for calibration. |
