Product Name/Description DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyser. An in vitro diagnostic medical device (IVD)

REF Number: 33410, C11137

ARTG 213978
(Beckman Coulter Australia Pty Ltd - Clinical chemistry autoimmune IVDs)

ARTG 177999
(Beckman Coulter Australia Pty Ltd - Instrument/analyser IVDs)
Recall Action Level Hospital
Recall Action Classification Class II
Recall Action Commencement Date 2/01/2024
Responsible Entity Beckman Coulter Australia Pty Ltd
Reason/Issue Beckman Coulter advise:
Issue 1: The DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyser assay protocol file for the Access Ultrasensitive Insulin assay applies an incorrect conversion factor when converting from system default units of µIU/mL to the International System of Units (SI units) of pmol/L.
Issue 2: The DxI 9000 Analyser incorrectly displays the quantitative threshold of the lowest reportable result when there is a unit change performed within the test configuration and the test is ran producing results under the lowest reportable result.
Issue 3: The system incorrectly reports a result of "0" when a user-created expression includes non-numerical symbols (e.g., ">" or "<") for calculated tests. This may lead to erroneously low reporting a result of "0" to the physician.
Issue 4: The analyser may not aliquot a reserve volume for assays configured to do so if the assay LIS code is different to the assay Test ID
Recall Action Product Defect Correction
Recall Action Instructions Customers should read the customer letter carefully and noted all the required mitigations for each of the 4 issues.
For Issue 1: Beckman Coulter will release an updated Access Ultrasensitive Insulin APF on the DxI 9000 analyser that includes the correct conversion factor for SI units (pmol/L) and will have a representative contact customers when the updated APF is available.
For issues 2-4 Beckman Coulter will implement a correction with a future software release. A Beckman Coulter service representative will contact customers to schedule the software upgrade when it is available.
