What the firm is doing
On 06/16/2026, an "URGENT MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL" Letter was provided to customers informing them that, A software bug has been identified in the WebApp software which, under specific conditions, may prevent the result suggested by PhenoMATRIX from being overwritten by the result selected by the user. As a consequence, the result transmitted by WASPLab to the LIS may be the result suggested by PhenoMATRIX, rather than the result selected by the user. Customers were informed and instructed: In date 2026/06/15 we released a WebApp software version including the bugfix of this issue. As a consequence, you are required to schedule with your distributor the software update to correct the issue and, in the meanwhile, to check the results sent to LIS in case you changed the result suggested by PhenoMATRIX. Complete the attached Customer Response Form and return to the Copan WASP Srl contact noted on the form so that Copan WASP Srl may acknowledge your receipt of this notification.
