The initial reporter stated they received discrepant results for one patient sample tested with elecsys anti-hcv ii on a cobas e 801 analytical unit and an unknown roche analyzer.The sample was initially rested on the customer's e 801 analyzer, resulting in an anti-hcv value of 53 coi (reactive).The sample was sent to another laboratory for testing on an unknown device and it resulted in an anti-hcv value of 0.6 coi.The sample was repeated on the customer's e 801 anlayzer on (b)(6) 2025, resulting in an anti-hcv value of 59 coi (reactive).The sample was provided for investigation where it was tested on an unknown roche device on (b)(6) 2025, resulting in anti-hcv values of 62.3 coi (reactive) and 62.6 coi (reactive).During investigations, the sample was also tested using an unknown clia method, resulting in an anti-hcv value of 0.69 s/co (non-reactive).

The patient sample was tested using the fujirebio hcv score method, and the result was indeterminate (1+ ns3 band).It cannot be determined which result is correct due to the indeterminate immunoblot result.False reactive results may occur in elecsys anti-hcv ii as the assay has a specificity of < 100%.For diagnostic purposes, the results should always be assessed in conjunction with the patient¿s medical history, clinical examination, and other findings.The elecsys anti-hcv ii assay performs within specification.
