The alarm trace on (b)(6)2024 was acceptable.A hardware check and precision studies were performed and they were within specifications.Based on the information provided, the investigation determined that the event was consistent with a preanalytical handling issue (it is unclear whether a 5- or 10-minute centrifugation program was used).The investigation did not identify a product problem.
