Section d4, lot number expiration date was updated.Calibration was last performed on (b)(6) 2022 with acceptable results.Qc was acceptable.Between (b)(6) 2022 and (b)(6) 2023, 169 sample-related alarms were observed.Product labeling states: "digoxin-like immunoreactive substances (dlis) have been identified in blood from patients with renal failure, liver failure, and pregnant women in their third trimester.Studies have shown that the presence of dlis in a sample can result in a false elevation of digoxin when assayed by commercially available immunoassays." since the patient suffers from renal failure, digoxin-like immunoreactive substances (dlis) could have contributed to the high result.As the sample was not received for investigation the cause of the event could not be determined.The investigation did not identify a product problem.
