Additional Manufacturer Narrative
|
|
For c503 analyzer serial number (b)(6): the hardware performance check results suggest issues with cell rinse functionality.The customer submitted 6 patient samples for investigation.The investigation tested the samples to determine if there was any effect using the pre-dilution application.There was no change in the recovery of patient samples between the standard alp application and the pre-dilution application.The high alkaline phosphatase (alp) results were likely due to a high leukocyte concentration leading to an accumulation of cells close to the plasma surface.In samples with hyper-leukocytosis, the sample surface may show higher alp activity due to the presence of leukocytes, debris, and platelets.The investigation did not identify a product problem.
