Why the product was recalled

ELITech Clinical Systems SAS initiated this recall because some users of ENVOY 500 ISE CALIBRATOR Kit (Part number: 55117), for Envoy 500 systems are observing trouble while calibrating with some vials. Users contacted the firm when they received the messages "ISE OUT OF REPRODUCIBILITY" or "ISE SLOPE OUT OF RANGE" (i.e., failed calibration). This has resulted in delay in obtaining patient results until the calibrator lot is replaced.
