What to do

Check your product against the names and codes above. The FDA enforcement record lists the recall as voluntary: firm initiated; it does not state a consumer remedy, so follow the firm’s notice or the FDA link.

Company
Beckman Coulter Inc.
Reason
a software defect in which the Parameter Package (PP) import logic overwrites all predefined calculated test rules, including those previously modified by the user, upon import of a new Parameter Package version. As a result, usercustomized calculated test rules revert silently to their default expressions, potentially generating erroneous patient test results without an explicit error notification. The issue affects instruments running software version 1.5 or lower and only occurs when a new Parameter Package is imported to a system that already has an existing Parameter Package onboard; new installations are not affected.
Hazard
FDA Class II: may cause temporary or medically reversible adverse health consequences (FDA definition).
Who’s affected
Worldwide distribution - US Nationwide.
