Apoc incident: # (b)(4).The investigation was completed on 25-jan-2022.The customer reported obtaining a discrepancy in hgb patient sample results between testing with i-stat cg4+ and cg8+ (cartridge lot numbers unknown) and a sysmex lab instrument.Hgb is calculated from the measured hct response per artwork 765792-00 rev.B, rev.Date: 16-sep-2020, istat cg8+ cartridge.As hgb would only generate an erroneous result if the measured hct response it is dependent on was incorrect, hct was the focus of this investigation.A review of hct performance verification data of i-stat versus multiple reference instruments at multiple sites for clew a41 and a42 demonstrates that the overall performance of the i-stat hct is in agreement with other manufacturers.No deficiency has been determined.
