[120735800]
A customer in the united states reported misidentifications of four (4) strains from three (3) cystic fibrosis patients in association with the vitek? 2 gn test kit. The gn card identified bordetella hinzi for all four (4) isolates. A physician suspected the identification should be achromobacter, so three (3) isolates were sent to an external lab (arup) for identification (maldi-tof). The following identifications were obtained: (b)(6) - achromobacter species; (b)(6) - achromobacter species; (b)(6) - kerstersia gyiorum. The customer reported that there was no impact to patient treatment, and the physician did not allege that the results caused him to act incorrectly. It was mentioned that patient (b)(4) had been admitted to a hospital a week or two prior to being seen in the customer's clinic. The hospital identified an achromobacter (maldi-tof) from the patient's sputum. There is no indication or report from the hospital or treating physician to biom? Rieux that the discrepant result led to any adverse event related to the patient's state of health. A biom? Rieux internal investigation will be initiated.
