The hazard
Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics Inc. has confirmed a potential issue that could occur under certain conditions, a software problem is causing erroneous results to be printed. When the results are run on the epoc NXS Host and Delete Blood Tests feature is enabled, the results that are generated at the time of testing are correct; however, when this issue occurs, results that are printed, saved and/or transferred to a data manager, may include unselected analytes that are from a previous patient or QC test. The worst possible outcome may result in a failure to diagnose hyperkalemia, due to an erroneous depressed potassium level or inappropriate treatment to hyperglycemia due to erroneous glucose reading.
