Recalled Products

  1. MAS Cardioimmune XL, Level L
  2. MAS Cardioimmune XL, Levels 1, 2, 3
  3. MAS Cardioimmune XL, Multi-Pack

Reason

Troponin I results in the Cardioimmune XL Control are measuring approximately 15-30% low in Levels 1 and 3 resulting in control measurements which are outside the published value assignment ranges. As a precaution, we are proactively recalling all levels associated with lot CXL1301. Only Troponin I control measurements are affected, all other control analyte measurements are recovering within the published value assignment ranges. We are currently investigating the root cause.
