Manufacturer Reason
for Recall
In rare situations patients infected with high viral load of SARS CoV 2 may have samples that generate Ct values less than or equal to (d) 5 when certain amplification and detection platforms (thermocyclers) are used. These specimens would be falsely interpreted as negative if target amplification occurs prior to a cycle threshold (Ct) value of 5. There have been no formal complaints of False Negative results with Ct values <5 from Lyra SARS-CoV-2 Assay users.

ActionOn May 13, 2021, Quidel issued an Urgent Medical Device Correction notice to customers via email notifying them that Quidel has determined that there is a potential for patients with high SARS CoV 2 viral loads to be falsely interpreted as negative if target amplification occurs prior to a cycle threshold (Ct) value of 5 when using specified applications. YOU NEED TO TAKE THE FOLLOWING ACTIONS: 1. Immediately review the revised Lyra SARS CoV 2 Assay Instructions for Use (IFU) for updated Result Interpretation guidance: https://www.fda.gov/media/136820/download. 2. For clinical specimens generating Ct values d5, perform 1:10 and 1:100 dilutions using uninoculated transport media, extract, and test the diluted samples according to the Lyra SARS CoV 2 IFU. Refer to the Lyra SARS CoV 2 Assay IFU for full, detailed instructions. 3. It is recommended that any data which has been previously generated be re-evaluated and samples re-tested, as needed. 4. Complete the enclosed Field Corrective Action Fax Back form acknowledging receipt and understanding of the recommended actions.
