Recall Z-0642-2016— Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics
Class II · Terminated
Class II FDA medical device recall by Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics, initiated 2015-11-03, terminated 2018-05-30. It names 2 FDA 510(k) clearances: K063144, K031924. Product: VITROS 4600 Chemistry System, Catalog Number 6802445, Unique Device Identifier Number 10758750012343, Software Version 3.2 and below; IVD. Product Usage: The VITROS 4600 Chemistry System is intended for use in the in vitro quantitative measurement of a variety of analytes of clinical interest, using both VITROS Chemistry Products Slides (colorimetric endpoint, rate, ion-selective electrode, and immunorate methods) and VITROS Chemistry Products MicroTip liquid reagents (spectrophotometric and spectrophotometric immunoassay methods.). Reason: Software anomaly may allow VITROS Systems to sample and process assays while the fluids and reagent temperatures are not in the required temperature range for optimal processing. When this intermittent issue occurs, the VITROS Systems continue to operate and process results without notification to the User, possibly producing erroneous results..
