## Indications for Use

The BC-5390 Auto Hematology Analyzer is a quantitative, automated hematology analyzer for in vitro diagnostic use in clinical laboratories. The BC-5390 Auto Hematology Analyzer provides complete blood count (WBC, RBC, HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW-CV, RDW-SD, PLT, MPV) and leukocyte 5-Part differential (Neu#, Lym#, Mon#, Eos#, Bas#, Neu%, Lym%, Mon%, Eos%, Bas%) for whole blood specimens collected in a salt of EDTA [dipotassium (K₂) or tripotassium (K₃)] obtained from venous or capillary blood collection. The purpose of the BC-5390 Auto Hematology Analyzer is to identify the normal human patient, with normal system-generated parameters, from patients whose results require additional studies.

## Device Story

The BC-5390 is an automated hematology analyzer for clinical laboratories. It processes whole blood samples (venous/capillary) via manual or autoloader input. The system uses electrical impedance for WBC/BAS, RBC, and PLT counting; colorimetric methods for HGB; and laser-based flow cytometry for WBC 5-part differential. The instrument consists of a Sample Processing Unit (SPU) and Data Managing Unit (DMU). The DMU manages fluidics, records measured signals, performs data analysis, and provides an intuitive UI for laboratory professionals. The device outputs 21 parameters, 3 histograms, and 1 scattergram. By identifying normal patient results and flagging abnormal ones, it assists clinicians in determining the need for additional diagnostic studies, potentially improving patient management workflows.

## Clinical Evidence

Method comparison study of 1531 whole blood samples across three sites (ages 1 day to 100 years) compared BC-5390 to the predicate. Results showed high correlation (r > 0.99 for most parameters). WBC morphology flagging sensitivity was 89.3% and specificity was 78.3%. Precision/reproducibility studies met specifications. Linearity, carryover, and interference testing confirmed performance within defined limits. Pediatric reference intervals were verified against literature.

- M-53LH LYSE
- Probe Cleanser
- BC-5D Hematology Control (K160606)
- SC-CAL PLUS Hematology Calibrator (K955925)

2. Principles of Operation:
The BC-5390 Auto Hematology Analyzer (hereafter referred to as BC-5390) uses the electrical impedance method to count and measure the size of WBC, RBC, BAS, and

{1}

PLT in human whole blood. The WBC, BAS, RBC and PLT parameters are counted in a dedicated channel using the measurement of changes in electrical resistance (i.e., electrical impedance method). These blood cells are suspended in a conductive diluent as the cells pass through an aperture of known dimensions. As each cell passes through the aperture, the change in resistance produces an electrical pulse. The number of generated electrical pulses signal the number of particles (cells) passing the aperture; whereas the amplitude of each pulse is proportional to the volume of each particle. HGB is determined by the colorimetric method, which is measurable at $530 - 535\mathrm{nm}$. The BC-5390 measures the leukocyte differential (Neu, Lym, Mon, Eos) by flow cytometry. As the cells pass through the flow cell they are exposed to a laser beam. The intensity of the light scatter reflects the cell size and intracellular density.

4. Specimen Identification:

Specimen identification is manual entry by keyboard or barcode reader, or automated identification by barcode scanner.

5. Specimen Sampling and Handling:

The BC-5390 supports three different analysis modes: autoloader whole blood mode, closed whole blood mode, and predilute mode. To analyze a sample in the closed predilute mode, the sample is first manually diluted (20μL of venous or capillary whole blood and 180 μL of diluent) then well-mixed according to the BC-5390 Operator’s Manual and presented uncapped to the sample compartment for aspiration. To analyze a sample in the closed whole blood mode, the operator manually presents the sample to the sample compartment. For the autoloader whole blood mode, the operator loads closed tubes into a tube rack (with the respective tube adapter); when analysis begins, the BC-5390 pierces the tube cap and aspirates the sample. All samples processed in each mode should be well-mixed and processed according to the BC-5390 Operator’s Manual.

6. Calibration:

Calibration and verification of calibration with the use of the SC-CAL PLUS calibrator is performed by automated or manual method according to the instructions for use, laboratory procedures, and local or national regulations.

## J. Performance Characteristics:

### 1. Analytical Performance:

#### a. Method Comparison

Method comparison studies were performed at three clinical sites (one site in U.S. and two sites in China) to assess the performance of the BC-5390 analyzer compared to the Sysmex XE-2100 using a total of 1,531 native venous whole blood samples collected in K₂EDTA. The study population consisted of 57.1% males and 42.6% females including pediatric (i.e. neonates, infants, children, and adolescents) and adult subjects up to 100 years of age. The gender for 0.3% of the study population (5 samples) was reported as unknown. In addition to healthy individuals, subjects with the following clinical conditions were included in the studies: acute inflammation/bacterial infection, chronic inflammation, parasitic infection/allergic reaction, viral infections, lymphoma, acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), acute myeloblastic leukemia (AML), chronic lymphoblastic leukemia (CLL), chronic myeloblastic leukemia (CML), plasma cell leukemia, other unidentified leukemias, severe anemia, myeloproliferative disorders, aplastic anemia, HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), macrocytic anemia, microcytic/hypochromic anemias, and normocytic/normochromic anemias. Each whole blood sample was analyzed in duplicate on the BC-5390 and Sysmex XE-2100 analyzers.

Deming regression and weighted Deming regression were used to estimate the parameters of the regression model (slope, intercept, 95% confidence intervals and correlation coefficient) according to CLSI EP09-A3. Weighted Deming regression was used for the WBC, RBC, HGB, and PLT parameters. Deming regression was used for the following parameters: HCT, MCV, MCH, MCHC, RDW-CV, RDW-SD, Neu#, Lym#, Mon#, Eos#, Bas#, Neu%, Lym%, Mon%, Eos%, and Bas%. Bias between the BC-5390 and Sysmex XE-2100 was calculated from the regression line at multiple clinical evaluation points for each parameter. Confidence limits of bias estimates were calculated based on standard errors of bias and 95% confidence. In addition, the mean difference and percent differences for each parameter at the defined clinical evaluation points were calculated. The Bland-Altman (difference) plots and 95% limits of agreement (LOA), and the hypothesis test to the slope and intercept were analyzed by statistical software. The estimated average bias for each parameter was provided for each clinical site and for all sites combined.

After analysis, three blood smears were prepared from each sample according to the respective laboratory standard operating procedures. Utilizing manual light microscopy, two readers each performed a 200-cell (leukocyte) differential (including morphology evaluation) for each sample. The overall morphology and distributional flagging efficiency (agreement), false positive (FP) and false negative (FN) rates, as well as clinical sensitivity and specificity were determined using a total of 1,514 whole blood samples.

## b. Precision/Reproducibility:

Precision performance of the BC-5390 was evaluated by performing a repeatability study at one clinical laboratory site with three analyzers and three operators and reproducibility studies across three clinical laboratory sites.

The repeatability study was conducted at one external clinical laboratory site using multiple operators and three BC-5390 analyzers over multiple operating days. Residual native whole blood samples collected in $\mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{EDTA}$ collection tubes were selected within the defined ranges and around medical decision points per CLSI H26-A2. Each sample was analyzed 10 consecutive times in the closed whole blood $\mathrm{CBC + DIFF}$ and predilute $\mathrm{CBC + DIFF}$ modes.

To obtain measures of reproducibility imprecision (%CV and SD), three levels of commercial quality control (single lot) were analyzed over 20 operating days, two runs per day and two replicates per run across three sites (one analyzer per site). To further demonstrate precision performance %CV and SD of within-run, between-run, between-day, and within-device were calculated per site and for the combined sites as shown below.

c. Linearity:

The linear ranges for the WBC and PLT parameters were established by testing two different sample sets (for each parameter with a wide overlap) prepared by diluting FDA cleared commercially available linearity materials to span the analytical measuring range (AMR). For each sample set, seven proportional dilutions were prepared (0%, 10%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%). Three replicates were performed for each theoretical concentration on three different BC-5390 analyzers in the closed mode.

The linear ranges for the RBC, HGB, and HCT parameters were established by testing diluted samples prepared from native whole blood. For each parameter, seven proportional dilutions were prepared (0%, 10%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, and 100%). Three replicates were performed for each dilution on two different BC-5390 analyzers in the closed mode.

Polynomial regression analyses for the first, second and third-order polynomials were performed for each evaluated parameter.

|  Parameter | Analytical Measurement Range (AMR)  |
| --- | --- |
|  WBC (x10³/μL) | 0.3–200  |
|  RBC (x10⁶/μL) | 0.20–8.00  |
|  HGB (g/dL) | 0.5–25.0  |
|  HCT (%) | 2.0–75.0  |
|  PLT (x10³/μL) | 5–2000  |

d. Carryover:

Carryover studies for the WBC, RBC, HGB, HCT, and PLT parameters were conducted using high target value (HTV) and low target value (LTV) contrived native whole blood samples. Testing was conducted to evaluate the carryover of whole blood within-mode, predilute within-mode, and mode-to-mode.

For within-mode carryover, the following combinations were evaluated: whole blood CBC+DIFF to whole blood CBC+DIFF and predilute CBC+DIFF to predilute CBC+DIFF. For mode-to-mode carryover, the following combinations were evaluated: whole blood CBC+DIFF to whole blood CBC mode, whole blood CBC+DIFF to predilute CBC+DIFF mode, whole blood CBC+DIFF to predilute

{10}

CBC mode, predilute CBC+DIFF to predilute CBC mode, predilute CBC+DIFF to whole blood CBC+DIFF, and predilute CBC+DIFF to whole blood CBC mode.

For each of the mode-to-mode and within-mode combinations the HTV samples (H1, H2, and H3) were aspirated and analyzed three times consecutively followed by three aspirations of the LTV samples (L1, L2, and L3). Carryover % was determined using the following calculation: % Carryover = 10 (LTV1-LTV3) / (HTV3-LTV3) × 100. The results of the carryover study were within the predefined specifications of ≤ 1.0% for WBC, RBC, HGB, HCT and PLT.

e. Interfering Substances:

Interfering substance studies were performed for the following: bilirubin, hemoglobin, triglycerides, high WBC, and high PLT. Whole blood samples (K₂EDTA) within the defined reference ranges were spiked with each interferent at different concentrations.

There was no significant bilirubin interference up to a concentration 500 mg/L for the following parameters: WBC, Neu#, Lym#, Mon#, Eos#, Bas#, Neu%, Lym%, Mon%, Eos%, Bas%, RBC, HCT, MCV, RDW-CV, RDW-SD, PLT and MPV parameters.

There was no significant hemoglobin interference up to a concentration 1110 mg/dL for the following parameters: WBC, Neu#, Lym#, Mon#, Eos#, Bas#, Neu%, Lym%, Mon%, Eos%, Bas%, RBC, HCT, MCV, RDW-CV, RDW-SD, PLT and MPV parameters. There was no significant hemoglobin interference up to a concentration 751 mg/dL for the HGB parameter; up to a concentration 693 mg/dL for the MCH parameter; and up to a concentration of 677 mg/dL for the MCHC parameter.

There was no significant triglyceride interference up to a concentration of 29.4 mmol/L for the HCT and MCV parameters. There was no significant triglyceride interference up to a concentration of 20 mmol/L for the HGB and MCH parameters and up to a concentration of 25 mmol/L for the MCHC parameter.

There was no significant interference observed for WBC up to a concentration of 183.72 × 10³/μL for the following parameters: HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, and MCHC.

There was no significant interference observed for PLT up to a concentration of 1809 × 10³/μL for the following parameters: HGB, HCT, MCV, MCH, and MCHC.

2. Other Supportive Instrument Performance Data Not Covered Above:

a. Specimen Stability

To evaluate sample stability for the whole blood mode (closed and autoloader) a combination of freshly collected whole blood samples drawn from patients and residual whole blood samples from clinical laboratory sites were analyzed. The

11

{11}

sample size totaled 54 specimens spanning the defined analytical measurement range for the WBC, RBC, HGB, and PLT parameters in addition to clinical evaluation points for other measurands. Aliquots were prepared and stored at the defined condition for each specimen, then analyzed in duplicate at different time points according to the study design. The sample stability for all measurands analyzed in the whole blood mode at room temperature (18–26°C) and refrigerated temperature (2–8°C) was established at 24 hours and 36 hours from the time of collection respectively.

Sample stability for the closed predilute mode was evaluated using a total of 35 residual whole blood samples spanning the defined analytical measurement range for the WBC, RBC, HGB, and PLT parameters in addition to clinical evaluation points for other measurands. Aliquots were prepared and stored at the defined condition for each specimen, then analyzed in duplicate at different time points according to the study design. The sample stability at room temperature for all measurands was established at 25 minutes from the time of sample preparation (dilution).

Acceptance criteria for each parameter was established for defined time intervals at each storage condition as the difference between the recovery of the measurand at defined time points and time point zero (T0). The acceptance criteria were met for each claimed storage condition: 25 minutes for prediluted samples, 24 hours for whole blood samples stored at room temperature (18–26°C) and 36 hours for whole blood samples stored at refrigerated temperature (2–8°C).

b. Sample Matrix Comparison

To demonstrate matrix equivalency of capillary whole blood to venous whole blood, a matrix comparison study was conducted using 57 paired samples collected in K₂EDTA. The samples were selected to cover the analytical measurement range of the WBC, RBC, HGB, and PLT parameters in addition to the medical decision levels of other measurands. Deming and weighted Deming approaches were used to estimate the parameters of the regression model (slope, intercept, 95% confidence intervals and correlation coefficient) according to CLSI EP09-A3. Confidence limits of bias estimates were calculated based on standard errors of bias and 95% confidence intervals. The results of the Deming and weighted Deming regression analyses and bias between the paired samples on the BC-5390 analyzer met the defined acceptance criteria for all parameters.

c. Mode Comparison

To demonstrate sample equivalency between the whole blood mode and predilute mode, a comparison study was conducted using 124 residual samples collected in K₂EDTA. The samples were selected to cover the analytical measuring range of the WBC, RBC, HGB, and PLT parameters in addition to the medical decision levels of other measurands.

12

{12}

For the comparison of the CBC whole blood mode to the  $\mathrm{CBC + DIFF}$  whole blood mode, a total of 103 samples were analyzed in duplicate in each mode. Similarly, for the comparison between the CBC predilute and the  $\mathrm{CBC + DIFF}$  predilute modes, a total of 75 samples were analyzed in duplicate in each mode. The samples were selected to cover the analytical measurement ranges of the WBC, RBC, HGB, and PLT parameters in addition to clinical evaluation points of the other parameters.

Deming and weighted Deming approaches were used to estimate the parameters of the regression model (slope, intercept,  $95\%$  confidence intervals and correlation coefficient) according to CLSI EP09-A3. Results for each comparison and parameter met the defined acceptance criteria.

# d. Anticoagulant Comparison

To demonstrate equivalency between samples collected in  $\mathrm{K}_3\mathrm{EDTA}$  versus those collected in  $\mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{EDTA}$ , a comparison study was conducted using 70 paired samples collected in  $\mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{EDTA}$  and  $\mathrm{K}_3\mathrm{EDTA}$ . The samples were selected to cover the normal range and medical decision levels for all measurands. Deming and weighted Deming approaches were used to estimate the parameters of the regression model (slope, intercept,  $95\%$  confidence intervals and correlation coefficient) according to CLSI EP09-A3. Results for each comparison and parameter met the defined acceptance criteria.

# e. Limits of Detection, Blank, and Quantitation (LoD, LoB, and LoQ)

Limit of Blank (LoB) was determined using five blank samples containing the predilute solution (diluent). Each blank sample was analyzed 12 times in the whole blood and predilute modes on three BC-5390 analyzers at one clinical laboratory site. To determine the Limit of Detection (LoD) and Limit of Quantitation (LoQ), five low level samples were derived from native whole blood. Each low level sample was analyzed 12 times in the whole blood and predilute modes on three BC-5390 analyzers at one clinical laboratory site.

|  PLT (x103/μL) | 0.00 | 3.0 | 3.0 | 0.00 | 2.5 | 2.5  |

# f. Background Counts

To establish the allowable background count for the BC-5390, diluent was analyzed as a sample in the whole blood and predilute modes, one run per day over multiple operating days at three clinical laboratory sites.

{13}

|  Parameter | Background Specifications  |
| --- | --- |
|  WBC | ≤0.1 x 103/μL  |
|  RBC | ≤0.02 x 106/μL  |
|  HGB | ≤0.1 g/dL  |
|  PLT | ≤5 x 103/μL  |

# g. Adult Reference Intervals

The adult reference interval for each BC-5390 parameter was established by analyzing whole blood samples collected in  $\mathrm{K}_2\mathrm{EDTA}$  from a total population of 251 healthy individuals (N=121 males, and N=130 females) representative of the United States population (i.e. race demographics). Due to the sample size of each gender (N≥120), confidence intervals for each parameter were calculated using a  $90\%$  probability (90% CI).

# h. Pediatric Reference Interval Verification

A literature reference interval verification study was performed for the pediatric population. A total of 161 samples were collected from apparently healthy pediatric patients ranging from neonate to 21 years of age within each pediatric subcategory (see table below). The results of the WBC, Neu#, Lym#, Eos#, Bas#, RBC, HGB,

{14}

HCT, MCV, and PLT parameters were compared to literature pediatric reference intervals. $^{1234}$

|  Pediatric Category | Age Range  |
| --- | --- |
|  Newborn (neonate) | Birth to 1 month of age  |
|  Infant | > 1 month to 2 years of age  |
|  Child | > 2 to 12 years of age  |
|  Adolescent | > 12 to 21 years of age  |

## K. Proposed Labeling:

The labeling is sufficient and it satisfies the requirements of 21 CFR Part 809.10.

## L. Conclusion:

The submitted information in this premarket notification is complete and supports a substantial equivalence decision.
