FDA-determined cause: Software design
Action taken
Nova Biomedical notified consignees via letter on 11/20/2024. Consignees were instructed that all current Nova StatStrip customers that have gone Live with their new meters recently received a meter software update (v.0.0.13.45 or above) from Nova Biomedical to eliminate the potential risk described above. All remaining customers that have been shipped StatStrip meters impacted by this field correction, will have their meter software updated by Nova Biomedical or local dealer prior to going "Live" with their new meters.
