Product

ADVIA Centaur XP Immunoassay System (including refurbished units), This system is intended for professional use in a laboratory environment only. Tests performed using this system are intended for in vitro diagnostic use. As with all diagnostic tests, a definitive clinical diagnosis should not be based on the results of a single test, but should only be made by the physician after all clinical and laboratory findings have been evaluated.

Reason

The firm has identified an issue with patient demographic information sent to the LIS from the ADVIA Centaur/ADVIA Centaur XP Immunoassay systems. Siemens has confirmed that under extremely rare circumstances patient demographic data from the previous order received from the LIS is merged with the next order. This issue can occur when the LIS data buffer on the ADVIA Centaur system becomes full
