App-derived interpretation

Unknown reason.no_named_rule · v1.0.0
On the Atellica CH 930 Analyzer, when scanning barcodes at the module console for Integrated Multisensor Technology (IMT) system fluids (Standard A (Std A) and Standard B (Std B)) for Sodium (Na), Potassium (K), and Chloride (Cl), the system will translate the decimal point separators to commas. This will result in invalid concentration values for the fluids, therefore the system will utilize default nominal values instead of lot specific IMT fluid concentration values for calculation of the calibrations and results for the Na, K, and Cl methods.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.
