A new hardware modification kit that solves this problem was developed by the manufacturer and is being imported by Roche Diagnóstica Brasil to be made available to customers as soon as possible. If you are unable to apply the final solution mentioned above (change kit installation) in a timely manner, temporarily follow one of the options listed below (workarounds):> Option 1 (workaround): Use only those tests that do not require prewash stages and tests that are not impacted by the lack of prewash steps. The lists can be found in "Important Information" in Table 1 and Table 2. Important: The tests listed in Table 3 in "Important Information" should NOT be measured until the installation of the modification kit has been completed. These tests should be masked by following the cobas® 8000 Operator's Manual> Option 2 (workaround): The workaround (option 2) requires an intervention from a Roche representative for the required configuration of the data manager: the consequences on the workflow needs to be considered. Visually inspect the prewash syringe plunger functionality (PreWash) before manually releasing the results to the Host / LIS, until the final solution is implemented. The automatic data transfer function of the patient sample results in the data manager needs to be disabled, so the patient results measured in the cobas and 801 module (only pre-wash tests) will not be automatically transferred to the Host / LIS. Instead, these results must be manually released to the Host / LIS upon visual verification of the functionality of the prewash syringe plunger (PW).
