Reported risk: Falsely elevated patient and/or control results may be obtained when using ARCHITECT BNP calibrators and controls. Preliminary investigation has determined that all current in-date BNP calibrator and control lots are impacted by an age dependent shift in performance. Use of impacted calibrator lots may result in falsely elevated patient results. Use of impacted control lots may result in invalid patient results due to controls out of range.
Verify each fact at the issuing agency before acting. Recall scope, affected lots, and remediation instructions may be updated by the agency after our last sync.
