Trending review determined no adverse trend for the issue for the product.Historical complaint review determined there is normal complaint activity for the lot number.Device history record review did not show any potential non-conformances, or deviations.Labeling was reviewed and found to adequately address the issue under review.A customer data review for alinity s chagas reagent, lot 26408be00 was performed.The analysis included initial reactive rates (irr), repeat reactive rates (rrr) and specificity (assuming zero prevalence) at rhode island blood center (ribc), across whole blood (wb) peer sites and all us customer sites using this lot.Aggregated performance of lot 26408be00 across all us customer sites (regardless of peer group) and selected wb peer sites is within product requirements and comparable to the performance of other lots of the same assay evaluated in the comparison.Additionally, a review of the overall monthly reactive rates from october 2021 to march 2022 was performed.The review demonstrates that reactive rates in january 2022 at ribc is within the range of historical performance.The performance of the assay across all months is within product requirements.Based on the investigation, no deficiency for lot number 26408be00 was identified.
