Manufacturer Narrative
|
A specific root cause could not be identified.Additional information for further investigation was requested but was not provided.As two samples from the same patient generated comparable high values and as a value in the same range was generated with a second roche analyzer, the results were believed to be correct.From the information provided, a general reagent issue could most likely be excluded.
