Plain-English summary
Ortho-Clinical Diagnostics is recalling the enGen Laboratory Automation System configured with Data Innovations, LLC Instrument Manager v8.06. The recall involves 20 units in the United States and 61 units in foreign countries, including Australia, Canada, and Germany.
The recall is due to a software anomaly where samples requiring follow-up actions, such as dilution or retesting, may be routed to the sample storage drawer before the necessary actions are completed.
