Class II FDA medical device recall by Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Inc., initiated 2020-09-22. It names one FDA 510(k) clearance: K131307. Product: ADVIA Chemistry Systems-Fructosamine (FRUC)-For in vitro diagnostic use in the quantitative measurement of glycated protein (fructosamine) in human serum or plasma on the ADVIA Chemistry systems Siemens Material Number (SMN): 10361941. Reason: Fructosamine QC and patient samples may exhibit a 60 umol/L positive bias across the measuring range compared to predicate assay reference leading to a potential adjustment of hyperglycemic therapy. Positively biased fructosamine results may prompt changes in glucose management that may affect glycemia. In extreme situations, more aggressive management of glycemia may occur and contribute to hypoglycemia..

Reason for recall

Fructosamine QC and patient samples may exhibit a 60 umol/L positive bias across the measuring range compared to predicate assay reference leading to a potential adjustment of hyperglycemic therapy. Positively biased fructosamine results may prompt changes in glucose management that may affect glycemia. In extreme situations, more aggressive management of glycemia may occur and contribute to hypoglycemia.
