  • 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
An update to the carryover avoidance technical bulletin to introduce additional steps for reagent carryover avoidance with the Lactate Dehydrogenase assay on RX Instruments. Additional pipette washes can be implemented as described in the technical bulletin. Interference to the Lactate Dehydrogenase (LOH) reagent would be observed as inconsistencies in Quality Control recovery, which may lead to a delay in running patient samples, or erroneous elevated test results.

These labels are deterministic app interpretations, not FDA categories.

Official device-enrichment evidence · Unknown

An exact joined enrichment record exists, but none supplies supported root-cause wording. This is not an FDA finding of an unknown cause.
