Event Description

The initial reporter stated they received questionable results for one patient sample tested with the lipc (lipase colorimetric) assay on two cobas 8000 c702 modules (serial numbers (b)(4).The results of the sample did not agree with other clinical findings of the patient.On (b)(6) 2022, the sample was initially tested on c702 serial number (b)(4), resulting in an lipc value of 738.4 u/l, accompanied by a data flag.The sample was repeated with a reduced volume, resulting in an lipc value of 900.3 u/l.Based on this result, the patient was hospitalized again.On (b)(6) 2022, a sample of the patient was tested in the hospital with an unknown method, resulting in a lipase value of 97.No unit of measure was provided.On (b)(6) 2022, the sample from (b)(6) 2022 was repeated on c702 serial number (b)(4), resulting in an lipc value of 758.4 u/l, accompanied by a data flag.The sample was repeated with a reduced volume, resulting in an lipc value of 927.8 u/l.The result of (b)(6) 2022 was deemed to be "too high" and clinically not possible.The questionable result was reported outside of the laboratory.
