Reason for recall
Beckman Coulter has determined that device software versions V1.3, V1.4, V1.4.1, V1.4.2, V1.4.3. have a defect due of which, when all constituent tests of a calculated result are rerun, either manually ordered by the operator at the analyzer or automatically triggered by predefined rules in System Configuration, the calculated result will not be recalculated using the constituent tests rerun results. The system will report only the calculated result using the initial constituent tests results to the operator and LIS/Remisol.
