Product

UniCel DxH 600 Coulter Cellular Analysis System, Software Version 1.1.1.0, Part No. B23858 The DxH Slidemaker Stainer is a fully automated slide preparation and staining device that aspirates a whole-blood sample, smears a blood film on a clean microscope slide, and delivers a variety of fixatives, stains, buffers, and rinse solutions to that blood smear.

Reason

Beckman Coulter is recalling the DxH 800 Slidemaker Stainer Software version 3.0.2.0 and DxH 600 software version 1.1.1.0 because the software for the DxH systems allows the creation of multiple orders with the same Specimen identification (ID) but different Patient identification when manually editing pending orders at the System Manager.
