Diagnostic Equipment

Software Anomaly: Ortho Clinical Diagnostics (OCD) has become aware that if a sample requires follow-up action, such as dilution or retesting due to a mechanical issue, it is possible for that sample to be routed to the sample storage drawer (Storage) prior to the completion of the necessary pending action. A delay in patient test result(s) reporting could occur as operator is not alerted that results have not been produced and that further actions are required.

It was determined that under rare environmental conditions (i.e., extremely dry air in combination with a highly isolated floor) electrostatic discharges (ESD) >8 kV may trigger an unintended movement of the AXIOM Luminos dRFsystem which may lead to an emergency situation and pose danger to the patients, operating personnel or to the unit.

It has been identified that in a reject image workflow where multiple studies are simultaneously opened on the Centricity PACS RA1000 workstation and images are rejected from the active displayed study, images for the previously displayed study may also be rejected. The issue can occur with a previously displayed study that remains open in the background. If one or more, but not all, images in
