Summary

This recall involves 15 units of the Inpeco FlexLab (FLX) Aliquoter Module (mALX), versions FLX-217-10 and FLX-217-40. The module may produce secondary sample tubes that are either missing labels or have labels that do not match the original sample, which can lead to erroneous results. This error occurs if operators do not properly empty the printer tubes buffer after opening the printer head for maintenance or error recovery. Laboratory personnel should contact the manufacturer or their distributor to arrange for necessary corrections to ensure patient samples are handled safely.

Mismatched or missing labels on sample tubes can lead to delayed medical results or erroneous patient data, which may result in incorrect medical treatment decisions or delayed diagnoses.
