Plain-English summary
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics, Inc. is recalling seven ADVIA Chemistry XPT systems that are interfaced to the CentraLink Data Management System V14x. The recall is limited to units distributed in the state of Washington. The affected systems use specific catalog numbers 10817209 and 10818262.
The recall is due to a software defect in the CentraLink system. When the feature for sending preliminary or initial results is enabled, there is a risk that a critical result could be overwritten by the same result rather than displaying the repeated result. This error could cause an erroneous and critical result to appear as if it has been verified upon repeat.
Healthcare facilities using these specific configurations should contact Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics for further instructions on how to resolve the software issue.
