Manufacturer Narrative

Siemens filed the initial mdr 9610806-2022-00007 on 18-feb-2022.Additional information (21-feb-2022): the results were evaluted correctly by the sysmex cs-2500 system software.Quality controls (qc) recovered in range and the issue was limited to one patient sample.Compared to the non-siemens assay used at the alternate laboratory, the innovance antithrombin assay uses an incubation time to facilitate an increased sensitivity to heparin binding site mutations.Sample specific interferences cannot be ruled out as a potential cause of the result discrepancy.The cause of the event is unknown.The reagent is performing according to specifications.No further evaluation of this device is required.
