Manufacturer Narrative
|
No return sample was available for analysis and no testing of retained kits was required as review of the customer data confirmed the expected results were consistently obtained on retest of the sample, suggesting a possible sample integrity issue for the single false depressed result obtained.A review of the manufacturing documentation did not identify any issues associated with the customer observation.A review of complaint tracking and trending metrics was performed and identified no adverse trends in conjunction with the complaint issue currently under evaluation.The architect total psa assay package insert contains information to address the current customer issue.Based on the available information from the customer site and from the results of this evaluation, there is no evidence to reasonably suggest a product malfunction occurred.The issue is related to one discreet patient sample.No additional issues were identified.
