Why it was recalled

Beckman Coulter is recalling the DxH 800 Slidemaker Stainer Software version 3.0.2.0 and DxH 600 software version 1.1.1.0 because the software for the DxH systems allows the creation of multiple orders with the same Specimen identification (ID) but different Patient identification when manually editing pending orders at the System Manager.

Class II means using this product may cause temporary or medically reversible health problems; the chance of serious harm is remote.
