  • 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.

Reason for recall

A software anomaly allows test results to be reported using Micro Tip and Micro Slide diluent packs that the system treats as expired even when the Use Expired Reagents setting is not enabled if a shelf expiration date is omitted during manual loading. The issue was identified by a customer complaint, in which a CREA Urine test was processed with an RE (Reagent Expired) code, even though the diluent pack was not expired and the use-expired-reagents setting was disabled. This can result in erroneous test results and/or delaying test results.

VITROS XT 7600 Integrated System; Product Code: 6844461; UDI: 10758750012343; VITROS XT 7600 System - Certified; Product Code: 6272222; UDI: 10758750012343; Range of installed serial numbers:76000109-76002327; Total systems currently installed in the US: 1,019 Total systems currently installed outside the US: 939 Total systems installed worldwide (Product Quantity Distributed): 1,958 Note1: The catalogue number 6844461 is used to denote the VITROS XT 7600 Integrated System. Catalogue number 6272222 is used to denote VITROS XT 7600 System Certified. A VITROS XT 7600 Integrated System maintains its original serial number through the certification process. Therefore, the manufacturing and distribution information for the two catalogue numbers will be combined. Note2: When manufactured, the system s serial numbers are sequential, but not all analyzers are released for distribution and therefore not installed. The range of serial numbers provided includes the identified minimum and maximum in serial numbers associated with all currently installed systems. Therefore, the amount of each system manufactured may not equal the amount of each system installed. Additionally, not all serial numbers listed are associated with an active installed analyzer in use today.
