Abbott Laboratories: 58 FDA recall reports
Every medical device recall the FDA has published for Abbott Laboratories. The fault, and how the agency graded it.

What the classes mean
The FDA sorts every recall into one of three classes. The class is the whole story. It is also the part people skip.
Class II is the bulk of every list here. That matters. A long list of Class II says something different from one Class I.
By class
By year reported
Checking whether it affects you
The lot or code number is what matters. Not the product name. A recall covers
specific lots. Yours may not be one of them.
Check the code on your package against the report. The FDA keeps the current
list at fda.gov/safety/recalls.

The issues include bypassing error codes, incorrect calibration, loss of module communication leading to overfilling wash buffer containers, missing QC flags, signal spikes, abnormal optics reads, and incorrect sample aspiration. The issues may lead to inaccurate results with an unknown bias direction and magnitude for assays measuring cardiac, metabolic (including diabetes), toxicology, prenatal, therapeutic drug monitoring, infectious disease, oncology, hepatic, pancreatic, hematological, endocrinologic, inflammatory analytes.

Alinity ci-series System Control Module clinical chemistry and immunoassay analyzer for in vitro diagnostic us
Z-2472-2021 · Class II · reported 2021-09-22 · Ongoing
- Why it was recalled
- Due to potential performance issues with software version 3.2.3 and earlier. Performance issues are: 1) There is the potential for onboard reagents past their lot expiration date or onboard stability time to be incorrectly displayed on the Reagent Status screen with a status of "OK". In this scenario, the expired reagent will remain in the carousel for sample processing. 2) Performing monthly maintenance procedure 5701 Clean ICT Drain Tip incorrectly may potentially cause issues such as damaged connector or leaking connection. 3) A sample exception with message code 150 "Unable to process test. Previous processing module error" is produced without notifying the operator of a reagent pipettor failure and may cause processing module to transition into the Pausing state. Tests initiated prior to the sample exception may continue to process without dispense of reagents, potentially leading to incorrect results. 4. Reagent short dispense: Alinity c needs a control measure to protect against the potential for short reagent dispense. Addition of a maximum depth limit for reagent cartridges on the Alinity c to prevent the potential for a short dispense is needed. 5. RSM indicators...

Read these counts with three things in mind
A firm with more recalls usually makes more products. A contract packer runs
hundreds of lines. It will out-recall a company with one product whatever either
does. This is not a safety ranking.
Most recalls here are voluntary. A firm found its own fault and pulled the stock.
That is the system working. It lands in this database looking the same as a recall
the FDA had to push for.
Terminated means the FDA considers the recall finished. It is not a verdict.
It does not mean anyone was harmed.
