Event Description
|
The customer would like the run data file investigated to determine a possible cause for the overflow into the platelet concentrate when the additive solution was added.There was not a transfusion recipient or patient involved at the time of the residual white blood cell (rwbc) testing, therefore no patient information is reasonably known at the time of the event.The platelet collection set is not available for return because it was discarded by the customer.This product is not available within the us, but this report is being filed due to an alleged failure that could occur on a similarly marketed device platform cleared for use by the fda.Wbc count is not available at this time.
