Beckman Coulter is recalling 183 DxI 9000 Access Immunoassay Analyzers (software versions 1.17 and below) because a software error can cause communication failures when connected to laboratory automation systems. This defect triggers "out of sequence" messages and pick-and-place errors that prevent the machine from completing diagnostic tests. Without a correct result, there is a significant risk of delays in reporting patient test results, which can postpone critical medical treatments. Consumers should contact their healthcare provider or Beckman Coulter at 1-800-526-3821 for guidance.
A software bug causes the analyzer to send incorrect sequence messages to automated laboratory systems, leading to sample handling errors or missing test results. This failure can result in incorrect or delayed medical diagnoses and treatment plans for patients.
