• Class II: Risk 09/22/2025
  The potential for falsely depressed Intact PTH patient results at the low end of the assay range, less than or equal to 50 pg/mL (less than or equal to 5.3 pmol/L), when using specific lots identified by the firm on the IMMULITE 2000/IMMULITE 2000 XPi systems. The bias is observed in both serum and plasma samples.
• Class II: Risk 08/11/2025
  Potential for falsely depressed patient, quality control (QC), and/or calibration results or delayed results.
• Class II: Risk 07/07/2025
  Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. has confirmed that a negative sodium bias may exist in some epoc test card lots. All other analytes are performing as intended. The observed average bias for sodium was -4.4 mmol/L. The maximum bias observed was -14 mmol/L, which occurred at a higher sodium concentration around 150 mmol/L. No positive bias has been observed. Quality Control (QC) fluid may or may not detect the issue depending on the bias magnitude and the frequency of QC testing.
