App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
Abbott has identified that Calibrator lot 08219BE00 is potentially impacted by an increase in Relative Light Units (RLUs) up to 94%. It has been confirmed that the increase in the calibrator RLU values may cause a decrease in the control values and patient results. Patient values generated using the impacted calibrator lot 08219BE00 may have changed interpretation from reactive to falsely non reactive. Results impacted may present as a (falsely) non reactive result that fall in the range between 0.50 to 0.99 S/CO.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.
