Reason for recall

The potential for intermittent well-to-well bias on the A1c_E assay on the Atellica CH and Atellica CI analyzer which could cause falsely depressed or falsely elevated HbA1c patient results.

Potency and specification recalls happen when a batch tests outside its approved limits for strength, purity or dissolution, which can mean the dose delivered is higher or lower than labelled.
