Why it was recalled

Roche investigation into complaints found Accu-Chek Inform II and CoaguChek XS Pro System barcode reading meters had the potential of intermittent erroneous decoding of patient identification if barcodes being read fail to meet size and/or quality standards. Errors have been confirmed with the EAN 13 barcodes which should not be used for patient or operator identification.

This product could cause temporary or reversible health problems — stop using it.
