Reason/Issue |
Roche has changed the performance claims for the Combur10 Test UX when measured on the Urisys 1100 Analyser. Roche performed internal performance studies, in order to maintain products’ compliance to current regulatory requirements. These studies determined that the limit of detection (LoD) of certain parameters when measured on the Urisys 1100 Analyser varied from the claims stated in the IFU current at the time of testing. Parameters with changed LoD are: Protein, Nitrite, Ketone bodies, Leukocytes, and Blood: intact erythrocytes.
Note: Values for all other parameters measured by the Combur10 Test UX remain unchanged. The lower LoD for visual reading remains unchanged for all parameters.
Roche has received no customer complaints worldwide in relation to this issue. |
