Why it was recalled

Brahms GmbH is recalling the B.R.A.H.M.S PlGF Plus KRYPTOR in vitro diagnostic test (REF 859075N) because quality control values at the lowest level (QC Level 1) may be underestimated, leading to falsely elevated sFlt-1/PlGF ratio results. This could cause a higher-risk classification for progression to preeclampsia with severe features and potentially unnecessary intensified clinical monitoring.
