Compliance with regulations
The HemoCue 201 Hb DM system is FDA approved. It complies with the 7-71 CLSI H15-A3 (Replaces H15-A2) standard for Quantitative Determination of Hemoglobin in Blood. The HemoCue 201 Hb DM system and the HemoCue 201 Microcuvettes has a CE - Mark. The HemoCueHb 201 Microcuvettes comply with the IVD Medical Device Direc-tive 98/79/EC and carry the CE mark. This, therefore, means that the product is approved for use in the European community.
Other Information
In 2011 the system was recalled for 3 months due to a programming error.

Sweden is spelled incorrectly in the “Manufacturing/building method(s)” section. The first sentence in the “User Provision Model” section is not clear and should be rewritten.
Regarding the “Distribution to date”, even if exact numbers are not known, a rough order of magnitude estimation would add significant value.
