What happened

Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is recalling the Atellica IM 1300 Analyzer, an automated immunoassay analyzer used to perform diagnostic tests on clinical specimens. The recall affects 392 units in the United States and 449 units internationally across numerous countries worldwide. The problem occurs when the analyzer scans a barcode for a new reagent kit lot with a newer Test Definition (TDef) version than the current system version—this can cause some customer-defined settings for that assay to reset to their default values, potentially resulting in falsely low or high test results.

The affected devices have software version V1.23.1 or lower. The recall notice does not specify a remedy or recommended action for consumers.

When a 2D Master Curve and TDef barcode for a new kit lot of reagent is scanned and the TDef version is a newer version than the version that is currently on the system, some of the customer defined settings for that assay may reset to default values
