Medtech Recalls

The document lists various medical terms and concepts related to clinical laboratory testing and recalls. Some key points include: - Troponin T and LD tests can help diagnose myocardial infarction. - Monoclonal gammopathy appears on protein electrophoresis and beta HCG is a marker for malignancy. - Haptoglobin is decreased in hemolytic anemia. Exposure to air changes blood gas measurements. - Many blast cells in bone marrow could indicate acute myeloid leukemia. Anti-thrombin III deficiencies are associated with thrombosis. - Proper storage times and conditions are listed for blood products like fresh frozen plasma and cryoprecipitate after thawing or pooling.
