Hazard / Issue
The reason for this recall is Healgen Scientific Ltd. has determined that their Urinary Reagent Strip products have shown reduced sensitivity, or potential false negative results for the detection of urinary protein by way of uneven color fading on the total protein test pad. This could lead to a delay in the identification of potential kidney diseases, their evaluation, and/or other conditions associated with elevated protein levels in urine and subsequently a delay in patient treatment.
