The root cause of the issue was related to a reference electrode manufactured by diamond diagnostics (dd ref electrode) used with the 9180 electrolyte analyzer.The reference electrode used (dd ref electrode) is covered by a roche initiated recall.Customers using the dd ref electrode were instructed to immediately stop using sodium (na) results from their 9180 analyzer.The affected reference electrode was not distributed in the united states.Customers in the united states use roche reference electrode and reference electrode housing.No further action is needed for customers in the united states.
