When a Clot Detection Error is generated during the sample aspiration from the Primary Sample Tube the aspirated volume is dispensed into the first empty Secondary Sample Tube. This Secondary Sample Tube is flagged with error 2132 or 1442 and sent to IOM Priority Output Racks to be manually managed. The current error message associated to error 2132 or 1442 recommends that the operator manages these Secondary Sample Tubes according to Laboratory Practice, but it does not clarify that these Secondary Sample Tubes may be diluted with water from the hydraulic circuit of the Aliquoter Module this may lead to reporting of erroneous results if the diluted sample is used for testing.

Potential for the needle to detach from the cartridge after the bottom of the cartridge is twisted and removed. If the needle is not securely seated, the needle can fall out of the sheath and cause the unused needle to project out of the cartridge, and result in a needle stick/puncture from the clean/unused needle
Affected product was dropped during manufacturing, which may result in a bent wire guide and/or the presence of loose foreign matter on the wire guide.
