Automated Benchtop System to Bring Blood Testing To Anyone, Anywhere

By HospiMedica International staff writers
Posted on 18 Jul 2024

Almost all medical decisions are dependent upon laboratory test results, which are essential for disease prevention and the management of chronic illnesses. More...

However, routine blood testing remains limited worldwide. Many adults avoid routine blood tests due to their complexity and the long wait times for results, which can lead to delayed interventions or missed diagnoses, resulting in substantial avoidable costs. Now, a groundbreaking diagnostic platform is set to transform the existing global infrastructure by providing lab-accurate, actionable test results that aid in the early detection and prevention of chronic conditions.

Truvian Health (San Diego, CA, USA) has developed an automated benchtop system that allows simple, accurate, and comprehensive routine blood tests to be conducted directly in clinics, doctor’s offices, and pharmacies. Utilizing patented technologies and intelligent integration, Truvian’s compact device offers a convenient and economical alternative to traditional off-site labs, delivering quick, lab-accurate results from just a small blood sample, and enhancing healthcare decision-making. The Truvian system combines clinical chemistry, immunoassay, and hematology tests in one operation and can simultaneously handle multiple types of assays. Its initial offering, a comprehensive wellness panel, covers over 90% of the most commonly requested routine blood tests, requiring only one tube and 8 drops of blood.

Truvian has shared data from various independent clinical studies showing that its system's results match those from central laboratories across an extensive range of tests. The platform has been tested with over 50,000 samples from approximately 5,000 donors to date, achieving a reliability rate of over 98%. This system’s capability to provide central lab-quality results in any setting could fundamentally change the way chronic diseases are detected and managed. Immediate access to results enables healthcare providers to diagnose and treat patients without delay, enhancing patient involvement in their health decisions and improving outcomes. By consolidating blood diagnostics into a single visit, the platform reduces healthcare costs for both patients and systems, simplifies the monitoring and management of chronic conditions, and promotes healthier, longer lives. Truvian is now working towards securing US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) clearance for its blood testing platform.

“We are on the cusp of delivering what the world needs to counter today’s non-communicable disease burden and unsustainable healthcare costs,” said Jay Srinivasan, chief executive officer of Truvian.
