Reason

Siemens Healthcare Diagnostics is conducting a recall for Advia 2120/2120I Hematology systems that are connected to Avdia Autoslide systems (SMN 10286141 or SMN 10286142). Siemens has determined that if an autosampler rack jam error occurs during operation of an Advia 2120/2120I connected to an Advia Autoslide, it is possible that the next slide processed by the Autoslide could be labeled with the wrong sample identification information.
