Manufacturer Narrative

The instrument raw data report indicates the algorithm reported a high plt count for the sample provided compared to manual review.It reported 90.5 for the first run and 3.6 for the second run.The first run had 1776 plt events in 16.2 seconds (aperture 1), but only 129 events in 19.7 seconds for the second run.The plt histograms of the first run do not show significant low-end interference, thus no correction occurred.Because higher number of plt events was collected for the first run, the algorithm reported higher plt counts than the second run.The root cause of high pseudo plt events could not be determined because the histogram shows no abnormal pattern that can caused by electrical noise/micro bubbles.Assignable cause could not be determined with the information available.Bec internal identifier (b)(4).

Event Description

The customer reported one patient sample with multiple myeloma recovered with a high platelet (plt) count and no platelet specific suspect messaging when cycled on the dxh900 hematology instrument compared to a rerun on a different instrument and manual slide review.The higher platelet report was sent to the physician causing a delay in a platelet infusion procedure for the patient.A corrected report was sent.
