What this means for you
Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Plain-English summary
Roche Diagnostics Corporation is recalling 15 units of the Cobas infinity central lab IT solution, specifically the Calculator/Data Processing Module (Material Number 07154003001). The affected software versions are 2.0 through 2.5. The units were distributed to laboratories in Alabama, Arizona, California, Georgia, Iowa, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Texas.
The recall is due to a potential software defect where quality control (QC) alarms may not display when they should. This issue can occur when using the Standby bottle function, specifically for the first sample processed after a bottle change. If the QC is out of range on the standby bottle and it is not removed from the system, the QC alarms may fail to appear next to the sample result once the bottle status changes from Standby to Current.
