Further investigation of the customer issue included a review of the complaint text, a search for similar complaints, review of historical data, and a review of labeling.Return testing was not completed as returns were not available.A review of the architect c803775 internal and external quality controls show they are ok.A review of tracking and trending did not identify any trends for the complaint issue.A review of the manufacturing documentation did not identify any issues associated with the complaint issue.A review of labeling concluded that the issue is sufficiently addressed.The bilirubin calibrator package insert helps with the standardization of the assay.The abbott bilirubin (both total and direct) assays are standardized to the doumas method which means we have a consistent standardization of our calibrators while other manufacturer's may use a different process or approach.Based on the investigation no systemic issue or deficiency of the total bilirubin for lot 55889uq09 was identified.
