Sections a2 and a3 were updated.Sections b6 and b7 were updated.Calibration was acceptable.Intermittent high qc results were received.The customer uses third-party qc; this material is used for monitoring purposes, but not for accuracy control.The system cannot be appropriately assessed as ready for patient testing without manufacturer set target values.No instrument maintenance issues were identified.The measuring cell was replaced, however, this did not resolve the qc issues.High results for both qc and patient results suggest the possibility of contamination within the laboratory.Based on the information provided, the cause of the event could not be determined.The investigation did not identify a product problem.
