    iChem VELOCITY Automated Urine Chemistry System, Catalog #700-7176-001 and iChem VELOCITY Automated Urine Chemistry System Computerless, Catalog #700-7177-001. The iChemVELOCITY automated urine chemistry system is an in-vitro diagnostic device used to automate the urine chemistry analysis profile using iChemVELOCITY Urine Chemistry Strips. The iChemVELOCITY can be used as a stand-alone system, as well as in a iQ200 Series system, a configuration given the proprietary name iRICELL as it is designed to be hardware and software compatible with iQ200 Series systems.

    The Strip Provider Modules (SPM) on some of the instruments had not been inspected during manufacture for correct seal placement and integrity.

  • 2017-03-01TerminatedDevice Design

    iChemVELOCITY Urine Chemistry System, Catalog No. 800-3530, 800-7167, 800-7719, 800-7720, 800-3564, 800-7100, 800-7103, 800-7106, 800-7162, 800-7163, 800-7166, 800-3061. The iChem Velocity automated urine chemistry system is used to test for the following analytes in urine: ketones, blood, protein, glucose, bilirubin, urobilinogen, nitrite, leukocyte esterase, specific gravity, pH, ascorbic acid, color, and clarity. The iChem Velocity automated urine chemistry analyzer is intended to be used for in vitro measurement of various analytes in urine; it is intended for use only with the iChem Velocity urine chemistry strips

    The probe misalignment or bending has the potential to lead to delay in reporting results or incorrect patient results.
