The Vet Fluidlab 1 (Anvajo) is a new urine sediment analyzer that uses holographic microscopy to detect urine sediment particles in uncentrifuged urine. Compared to manual microscopy and Idexx SediVue analysis, the Fluidlab showed acceptable performance in detecting white blood cells and bacteria, but improvement is needed in the sensitivity for detecting crystals and casts, and the specificity for detecting red blood cells and epithelial cells.
The Vet Fluidlab 1 (Anvajo), a new urine sediment analyzer for use in veterinary medicine, uses holographic microscopy to detect urine sediment particles in uncentrifuged urine. We compared the performance of the Fluidlab to manual microscopy and Idexx SediVue analysis for the detection of RBC, WBC, epithelial cells (EC), struvite crystals (STR), all crystals (CRY), and casts (CST) in urine samples from cats and dogs. The performance of the Fluidlab for the detection of bacteria was compared to bacterial culture. We included 624 urine samples from feline (238; 38%) and canine (386; 62%) patients; 227 samples had been submitted for bacterial culturing. The sensitivity of the Fluidlab compared to manual microscopy was 92.1% for RBC, 90.1% for WBC, 87.5% for EC, 67.6% for STR, 53.9% for CRY, and 12.5% for CST. Specificity was >97% for STR and CST, 90.0% for CRY, 78.4% for WBC, 59.4% for EC, and 55.1% for RBC. Sensitivities and specificities of the Fluidlab for analytes compared to manual microscopy were found to be similar to those obtained by the Fluidlab compared to SediVue analysis. Miscellaneous materials (e.g., lipid droplets, sperm, cell detritus) seemed to be the main reason for the high false-positive rate in RBC and EC classification by the Fluidlab. Detection of bacteria by the Fluidlab compared to bacterial culture had a sensitivity of 89.8% and a specificity of 72.3%. The performance of the Fluidlab is acceptable for the detection of WBC and bacteria; sensitivity for the detection of CRY and CST, and specificity for the detection of RBC and EC, require improvement.
