The customer reported an issue on their advia 560 hematology system where the autoloader would duplicate the barcode sent to the system from the tube in position 7 to the tube in position 8 of the autosampler rack.The results from the tube in position 8 would therefore be assigned to the incorrect patient.The rest of the tubes were read with the correct barcode.No patient results were reported to the physician(s) for the incorrect patient due to this issue.There are no known reports of patient intervention or adverse health consequences due to this event.
