Siemens healthcare diagnostics has determined that the cause of the discordant coagulation factor viii deficient plasma patient results generated on the bcs xp analyzer sn (b)(4) was due to a reagent syringe that required replacement on the system.Once the reagent syringe was replaced, the coagulation factor viii deficient plasma test was rerun on the bcs xp analyzer sn (b)(4) and the results generated were acceptable.The instrument and reagent are performing according to specifications.No further evaluation of this device is required.

Event or Problem Description
|
|
Discordant coagulation factor viii deficient plasma patient results for one patient were generated on the bcs xp analyzer (sn (b)(4)).These results were not reported to the physician.All quality control (qc) was in range on this bcs xp analyzer.The same patient sample was repeated on the same bcs xp analyzer and discordant coagulation factor viii deficient plasma patient results were generated once again.No discordant results were reported to the physician.The same patient sample was then run on a ca-7000 analyzer and on a different bcs xp analyzer (sn (b)(4)).The coagulation factor viii deficient plasma patient results generated on the ca-7000 analyzer were not considered discordant (mean of 34.2%) and consistent with the patient results generated on the bcs xp analyzer sn (b)(4) (mean of 33.2%).The coagulation factor viii deficient plasma patient result generated on the bcs xp analyzer sn (b)(4) (mean of 33.2%) was reported to the physician.There are no reports of patient intervention or adverse health consequence due to the discordant coagulation factor viii deficient plasma patient results.
