The initial reporter received a questionable elecsys troponin i stat immunoassay result for one patient sample tested on a cobas 6000 e 601 module with serial number (b)(4).On (b)(6) 2021, the initial result was reported to the physician.On the same day, the patient was transported to another facility where a negative unspecified troponin result was obtained on a new sample from the patient.The pathologist of the laboratory also questioned the result and requested that the initial plasma sample be sent to another laboratory for a rerun.The laboratory uses a vitros analyzer with an unknown laboratory method.The repeat result was deemed correct.The initial result of the plasma sample in a primary tube at 8:40 am was 2.8 ng/ml.The repeat result of the plasma aliquot sample from the other laboratory was <0.012 ng/ml.
