The Tru Hematology Test is part of the TruWellness Panel™ and is intended for use on the Tru Analyzer. The Tru Hematology Test (part of the TruWellness Panel™) is an in vitro diagnostic device and intended to classify and enumerate WBC, RBC, HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, PLT, Lymph#, Lymph%, Neut#, Neut%, Other WBC#, and Other WBC% in lithium-heparinized venous whole blood in clinical laboratory or point-of-care settings.
The Tru Hematology Test (part of the TruWellness Panel™) is intended for use in adults 18 years of age or older. It is not intended for use in diagnosing or monitoring critical disease states such as oncology.
The TruSystem is an automated, integrated in vitro diagnostic platform consisting of the Tru Analyzer and 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 capture, 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 any self-test or QC check fails to meet system specifications, the Tru Analyzer will display an error code and next steps on the touchscreen interface.
The Single-Use Consumable Kit (TruWellness Panel™) houses all the components needed to process as well as 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 of at the end of the run.

8.3 Detection Limits
Detection limits were determined in accordance with CLSI document EP17‑A2. The Limit of Blank (LoB) corresponds to the highest measurement result that is likely to be observed for a blank sample. The assay is designed to have a LoB ≤ Limit of Detection (LoD).
The Limit of Detection (LoD) corresponds to the lowest concentration of analyte that can be detected with a probability of 95%. The assay is designed to have an LoD ≤ Limit of Quantitation (LoQ).
The Limit of Quantitation (LoQ) corresponds to the lowest concentration of analyte in a sample that had a CV ≤ 20%. Detection limits are provided in the table below.
| Analyte | LoB | LoD | LoQ | Units |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WBC | 0.1 | 0.2 | 0.2 | x 10³/µL |

8.7 Traceability
The hematology assays, including WBC, Neut, Lym, Others, RBC, HCT, and PLT, require static calibration factors that are incorporated into the instrument panel software to generate final reported values. These calibration factors were empirically derived during development to maximize concordance with the comparator hematology analyzer Sysmex XN. They are independent of the consumable lots and are only specific to the panel version. The HGB assay is the only hematology assay that uses the consumable-specific calibration coefficients that are consumable lot-specific.
The HGB assay calibrators are traceable to the reference materials in the table below. The calibration parameters for HGB are established internally and the assigned values for calibrators are unique for each reagent lot. The calibration information is barcoded on each Single-Use Consumable Kit.
| Assay | Traceable Material |
|---|---|
| HGB | JCCRM 912-3 (3-levels) |
8.8 Method Comparison Study
Whole blood specimens were prospectively collected from subjects at five external sites. For each subject, two Li-Hep (no gel) tubes of whole blood and one EDTA tube were collected. One Li-Hep tube was analyzed on the Tru Analyzer, while the other was centrifuged shortly after collection to obtain Li-Hep plasma. The Li-Hep plasma and the EDTA sample were then shipped
Page 17
to a central laboratory for analysis using FDA-cleared comparator methods. Additionally, contrived samples were used sparingly to address extremely rare high and low target analytes. Truvian results were compared with results from the Sysmex XN hematology analyzer.
