Software Version 2.8 & Below on VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry Systems, Catalog Number 6801375, Global Trade Item Number 10758750001132, and VITROS 5,1 FS Chemistry System Refurbished, Catalog Number 6801890, Global Trade Item Number 10758750001644; IVD. Intended for use in the in vitro quantitative, semi quantitative, and qualitative measurement of a variety of analytes of clinical interest, using VITROS Chemistry Products MicroSlides and VITROS Chemistry Products MicroTip Reagents.

Reason

Software Anomaly; It is possible for the device to process samples with a cartridge other than the intended cartridge, potentially leading to erroneous patient results. If this anomaly occurred previously, an indication would be a series of results that were similar across multiple samples (i.e., results could be believable or outside of the Reportable Range for the intended assay).
