Urgent Field Safety Notice
21 January 2014
Product Name:
ACE Control
Product Code:
A6040
Lot Numbers:
042, 043, 044
Component number (I-78-21)
Expiry date:

Type of Action:
Device Modification
Dear Valued Customer,
We would like to take this opportunity to inform you that additional testing has been completed on ACE Normal
Control (product code A6040-6X1ML) as a result of a complaint investigation. The results indicate that an
adjustment to the ACE Normal Control range is required for Lots 042, 043, 044.
Upon review of the QA release testing, the range calculated at the time of kit release (done per standard
operating procedures) supports the Control range assigned upon product release, i.e. 28-52 at 37°C. However,
upon investigation of a complaint encompassing several lots of reagents, the assigned Control range has been reevaluated and it was determined that the range for these lots requires an adjustment to 23-43 at 37°C.
If you or our customers have used these ACE Normal Control lots when testing and reporting patient results, and
the results were within the assigned range (28-52 at 37°C), then the test and reported patient results were valid.
A re-evaluation of these results is not necessary and there is no risk to patient health.
Therefore we ask you to comply with the following:
• Distribute Appendix 1 (Updated Assigned Value Sheets Rev 2) to all impacted End Users
• Place Appendix 1(Updated Assigned Value Sheets Rev 2) in all remaining inventory
• Complete the attached Faxback form indicating that you have received this notification and acknowledge
this Control range adjustment.
We wish to sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused as a result of this Urgent Field Safety Notice. Trinity
Biotech is committed to offering quality products and superior customer service. If you have any questions or
comments arising from this Urgent Field Safety Notice, please contact us at the following:
