Event Description

On (b)(6) 2022 the customer reported one questioned elevated sars-cov-2 igm patient result (access sars-cov-2 igm assay, part number c58957, lot number 172016) was generated on the customer's access 2 immunoassay analyzer (part number 81600n and serial number (b)(4).The patient is vaccinated (no date provided, unknown vaccine).The customer reported that the patient pcr test was negative.On (b)(6) 2022, the sars-cov-2 igm patient result was reactive at 2.54 ui/ml (questioned result), a previous result was non-reactive at 0.89 ui/ml on (b)(6) 2022.The patient samples were also tested with the sars-cov-2 igg 1st is assay at the same dates with questioned positive results.A second medwatch report will be generated to address the sars-cov-2 igg 1st is results.The patient is cmv igg and igm positive and ebv igg positive and ebv igm negative at same dates (b)(6) the customer suspected cross reactivity.There was no report of an injury or illness to the patient attributable to the output from the device in this event.No hardware errors or other assay issues were reported in conjunction with this event.System check passed on 17may2022.No qc data provided.Calibration passed on 27apr2022 with reagent lot 172016 and calibrator lot 922828.No issues with sample integrity were reported by the customer.Sample collection, handling and processing information such as sample type, sample volume collected, centrifugation, storage and other sample related information was not provided by the customer.

Manufacturer Narrative

The fill patient identifier is case (b)(4).The customer did not supply patient demographics such as date of birth, sex, weight, ethnicity or race.The access sars-cov-2 igm reagent was not returned for evaluation.No hardware issues were reported in conjunction with this event.Sars-cov-2 is an enveloped non-segmented positive-sense rna virus.It has several structural proteins including spike (s), envelope (e), membrane (m) and nucleocapsid (n).The spike protein (s) contains a receptor binding domain (rbd) which is responsible for recognizing the cell surface receptor, angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ace2).It is found that the rbd of the sars-cov-2 s protein strongly interacts with the human ace2 receptor leading to endocytosis into the host cells and viral replication.The access assay detect antibodies directed against the spike protein, which are more likely to neutralize the virus.In addition, the access sars-cov-2 igm assay is not currently intended for the detection of the vaccine response.The performance of the access sars-cov-2 igm assay has not been established in individuals who have received a covid-19 vaccine.While a positive antibody test result can be used to help identify people who may have had a previous infection with sars-cov-2, more research is needed in people who have received a covid-19 vaccination.Generally, all immune responses are different, therefore differences in patient responses are expected after vaccination.Depending on the vaccine administered, the antibodies generated may be different and therefore the test result may differ depending on the specific antibody detected by the test used in the laboratory.Per the sars cov-2 igm assay instructions for use, on the ¿cross reactivity¿ section, seven reactive samples for cytomegalovirus (cmv) igg were evaluated, no cross reactivity was demonstrated.In conclusion, a cause for this event cannot be determined with the information supplied.There is no evidence to reasonably suggest that a malfunction occurred in conjunction with this event.
