Cobas infinity central lab IT solution Material Number: 07154003001 Calculator/Data Processing Module, For Clinical Use

Hazard

Using the following versions of cobas infinity software (2.0 thorough 2.5), there is a potential where the results from the first sample subsequent to the bottle change, (when using the Standby bottle function), does not display a quality control (QC) alarm when one should be present. If the QC is out of range on the stand-by bottle and it is not removed from the system, there is a potential that when the status of the Standby bottle changes from the Standby bottle to the Current bottle status, QC alarms will not be displayed next to the sample result.
