Reported risk: In this follow-up to a February 2016 field correction Siemens is expanding the warning of well-to-well accuracy shifts to additional lots (and all future lots until further notice) of Dimension Vista BUN Flex Reagent Cartridges, resulting in inaccurate patient and/or quality/control results. Not all flexes or wells are impacted. Siemens is providing revised advice to customers to manage bun testing.
