There was an allegation of a retraction issue with the coaguchek xs softclix device.The reporter wanted to confirm if the lancet was seated correctly each of the three times it poked out of the end of the cap when priming.The reporter stated that the needle "poked out" of the cap when they were priming the device which occurred three times.On troubleshooting, the reporter stated that the needle was not showing when the cap was put on and the needle came out when the device was primed.The reporter stated that they had to reprime the device a few times before the needle retracted and was ready for use.The reporter also mentioned that recently, the lancet had not been lancing the finger as well.The reporter stated there were no accidental finger sticks and that they were able to get the device to work correctly afterward to complete the test.
