Additional Manufacturer Narrative

|
Upon additional investigation, the results of the customer's elecsys cmv igg assay and elecsys cmv igm assay could be confirmed.Application of an additional method from an independent third party (recomline cmv igg, mirkogen) showed reactive cmv igg results.The investigated sample was non-reactive in both the elecsys cmv igg and the elecsys cmv igm assay.Discrepancies to competitor cmv igg assays were observed, but no clear serologic picture for this patient could be generated.For safety reasons, the pregnant patient should be considered cmv seronegative to maintain cautious behavior.The elecsys cmv igg reagent performs within specification.
