Reason

The Paklx Instructions For Use (IFU), version 303285.IFUEN REV K, and the MATCH IT! Platelet Antibody Software database were not aligned. The IFU states that a minimum of 60 events must be collected per bead region. The MATCH IT! Platelet Antibody Software database requires a minimum of 100 events per bead region. This discrepancy caused invalid results when using the MATCH IT! Platelet antibody software to analyze a bead.
