    Lot Code: VITROS 5600 Integrated System (New) Product Code: 6802413 UDI: 10758750002740 VITROS 5600 Integrated System (Certified/Refurbished) Product Code: 6802915 UDI: 10758750002740 Lot Code: VITROS 5600 Integrated System (China) Product Code: 6904001 UDI: 10758750035786 Range of installed serial numbers: 56000015-56004962 Manufacture date range: August 2008 to present Distribution date range; August 2008 to present Total systems currently installed in the US: 905 Total systems currently installed outside the US:2344 Note1: The catalogue number 6802413 is used to denote the VITROS 5600 Integrated System. Catalogue number 6802415 is used to denote those VITROS 5600 Integrated Systems that have been refurbished, these systems can also be referred to as certified. A VITROS 5600 Integrated System maintains its original serial number through the refurbishment/certification process. Therefore, the manufacturing and distribution information for the two catalogue numbers will be combined. Note2: When manufactured the system s serial numbers are sequential, but not all analyzers are released for distribution and therefore not installed. The range of serial numbers provided includes the identified minimum and maximum in serial numbers associated with all currently installed systems. Therefore, the amount of each system manufactured may not equal the amount of each system installed. Additionally, not all serial numbers listed are associated with an active installed analyzer in use today. Note3: The value given for "Product Quantity Distributed" is the total number of active installed systems that are in use today. This number is known to fluctuate as individual systems are installed and/or decommissioned.

VITROS Chemistry Products LAC Slides on VITROS XT 3400 and VITROS XT 7600 Systems are experiencing an increased occurrence of calibration failure related to lots from coating 0130 and above with Condition Code TH4-63J during calibration, causing the delay of lac test results and potentially impact patient management. The issue was identified by QuidelOrtho through an increase in customer complaints compared to the historical baseline with average failure rate of 1% for coating 0130 in 2025 while average of failure rate for other coating was 0.06% in 2025 and average of failure rate for all coatings is 0.03% for 2024.

Generations 67 and above of VITROS Ca Slides are experiencing an increased occurrence of Condition Code TH4-63J during calibration on VITROS XT 3400 and VITROS XT 7600 Systems, causing calibration failures that delay calcium test results and potentially impact patient management. The imaging reflectometer algorithm detects excessive "spikes" (imperfections) in slide images and generates the TH4-63J condition code when the threshold of 600 spikes is exceeded. Updated analysis revealed a 19-fold increase in failure rates from 0.0043% (2024 baseline) to 0.082% for Generation 67+ slides in 2025, with 100% of calibrator failures occurring at the lowest concentration level. This can result in delayed diagnosis and treatment of conditions such as hypercalcemic crisis, parathyroid disorders, and other calcium-related emergencies requiring urgent intervention.
