510(k): 1 Recall: 10 UDI: 0 MAUDE: 10 Class.: 67

Recalls (10)

2010-11-16

The hose clamps in the DxC (with serial numbers less than 3412, labeled behind the lower right side instrument door) hydropneumatic system are sharp and pose a possible risk of injury. An operator could be cut by the hose clamps, which could in turn result in increased exposure to any waste products (biohazards) that might be present on the assembly.

This recall was initiated because Beckman Coulter has confirmed that for User-Defined Chemistries (UDRs), the polychrome correction is not automatically updated when wavelengths are modified.

The recall was initiated because Cartridge Glucose (GLU) on UniCel DxC and Synchron LX instruments may give falsely high results for moderately hemolysed samples. The Impact: (1) Neonatal samples drawn by lancets are more likely to be hemolysed to a degree sufficient to cause interference with glucose estimation and are a special at-risk population, (2) Other hemolysed samples may be similar

Intermittent Failure of Stirrer Motor-Beckman Coulter has determined that incorrect Glucose results on LX20 or DxC instruments have been related to an intermittent failure of the stirrer motor. -Stirrer motors can stall without any flags or motion errors. -If a stall occurs during a GLUm test near the time of sample inject, results may be affected. -Affected GLUm results may be high or low.
