ACL ELITE PRO-Analyzer: HemosIL Liquid Anti-Xa test definition removed

Instrumentation Laboratory is removing the HemosIL Liquid Anti-Xa test definition from ACL ELITE/Elite Pro analyzers used in clinical hemostasis laboratories. No illnesses or injuries have been reported.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: FDA Class II recall with no reported illnesses, injuries, or deaths. The specific safety concern is not detailed in the source documentation, making the hazard theoretical rather than confirmed. Removal of a test definition from a clinical device warrants precautionary action but without documented harm meets the criteria for Moderate severity.
