  • openFDA Device Enforcement Report-date coverage June 20, 2012–July 08, 2026 Known gap: openFDA describes 2004-present coverage, but the current export has no report-date records in this interval.
  • openFDA Device Recall event_date_initiated coverage June 01, 1997–June 30, 2026

Enforcement coverage uses report dates; product initiation dates can precede those bounds. Device-enrichment coverage uses FDA event_date_initiated.

App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
The firm has identified an issue with patient demographic information sent to the LIS from the ADVIA Centaur/ADVIA Centaur XP Immunoassay systems. Siemens has confirmed that under extremely rare circumstances patient demographic data from the previous order received from the LIS is merged with the next order. This issue can occur when the LIS data buffer on the ADVIA Centaur system becomes full
