The Tru Liver Health Test Panel is part of the TruWellness Panel™ and is intended for use on the Tru Analyzer. The Tru Liver Health Test Panel (part of the TruWellness Panel™) is an in vitro diagnostic device and intended to be used for the quantitative determination of Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP), Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), and Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT) in lithium-heparinized venous whole blood in clinical laboratory or point-of-care settings.
The Tru Liver Health Test Panel (part of the TruWellness Panel™) is an in vitro diagnostic test system that aids the physician in diagnosing the following disorders in adults 18 years of age or older:
- Alkaline Phosphatase (ALP): Liver, bone, parathyroid, and intestinal diseases.
- Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST): Certain types of liver and heart diseases.
- Alanine Aminotransferase (ALT): Certain liver (e.g., viral hepatitis and cirrhosis) and heart diseases.
The TruSystem is an automated, integrated in vitro diagnostic platform consisting of the Tru Analyzer and the Tru Liver Health Test Panel (part of the TruWellness Panel™), a Single-Use Consumable Kit that includes a Disc and a Support Pack. Designed for point-of-care and clinical laboratory use, the system enables the simultaneous measurement of clinical chemistry, immunoassay, and hematology parameters from a lithium-heparinized venous whole blood sample in a single run. The TruSystem delivers quantitative results for routine clinical chemistry and immunoassay analytes as well as a complete blood count (CBC) with a 3-part differential, all without the need for specialized operating skills, external calibration, or complex infrastructure.
The Tru Analyzer is a benchtop instrument that fully automates sample processing, assay execution, and result reporting. Its touchscreen interface allows operators to control workflows, initiate tests, and review results with minimal training. The Single-Use Consumable Kit and blood sample are loaded into the analyzer drawer, where all necessary processing takes place. Internally, the Tru Analyzer integrates:
- A high precision pipettor for automated sample and reagent handling
- An onboard centrifuge to separate whole blood into plasma
- A closed-loop thermal control system to maintain precise assay temperatures
- A motion control system to fully automate sample processing
- Dedicated detection modules for clinical chemistry, immunoassay, and hematology testing
- A high-definition camera used to collect assay readings, image captures, and instrument quality control checks
- An electronics board to manage individual module boards and associated firmware
- An integrated computer running the instrument software, accessible via the touchscreen user interface
The Tru Analyzer is factory-calibrated and continuously monitors its performance using optical sensing and electronic feedback mechanisms. Every time the analyzer is powered on or a Single-Use Consumable Kit (TruWellness Panel™) is loaded, the system runs an automated self-test to verify that it remains within calibration and is functioning properly. Internal quality control (QC) checks occur throughout the testing process to ensure the integrity of the analyzer, Disc, and Support Pack.
If an internal QC check does not meet specifications, the instrument will automatically suppress result reporting to prevent the release of potentially inaccurate results. Any impacted tests will display associated codes in the footnotes of the patient report. The Tru Analyzer also applies result flags to highlight conditions that may indicate abnormalities in the patient sample or require attention. These flags appear in-line with impacted assay results for clear visibility. If a system operation failure occurs, the Tru Analyzer will halt the run, and no results will be generated. In these cases, the instrument displays an on-screen error message with a unique code and step-by-step instructions to guide resolution. These measures ensure the system provides accurate results, while requiring no special user knowledge, training, or on-site calibration.
The Single-Use Consumable Kit (TruWellness Panel™) houses all the components needed to process and analyze samples on the Tru Analyzer, including dried reagents, internal process control solutions, barcodes that manage the identity of the kit lot (e.g., Disc and Support Pack ID), calibration information, dilution buffers, and single-use plastic pipette tips. It also serves as a waste container which the user discards at the end of the run.
