Reason for Recall

A software defect affecting VITROS Systems running VITROS Software Versions 3.8.0 and 3.8.1 causes the Configurable Westgard Rules to not report as expected. When a new control is defined, configurable Westgard rules, if selected, are not flagged or reported with the applicable QC results if the statistical criteria is met. This may result in acceptance of QC results that do not meet acceptance criteria, which may cause erroneous patient results to be reported.
