The enumeration of T lymphocytes positive for the CD4 antigen is used to determine the immune status of patients with, or suspected of developing, immune deficiencies such as AIDS. The BD FACS Presto™ is an investigational automated system for in vitro diagnostic use in performing the direct enumeration of CD4 absolute count, CD4 percentage of lymphocytes, and hemoglobin (Hb) concentration in human whole blood.
This is a prospective study to determine the relative bias between the investigational BD FACS Presto system and the predicate BD FACS Calibur with BD Tritest system in their determination of absolute CD4, % CD4, and Hb concentrations.

Device: Investigational BD FACSPresto System
Blood samples will be tested on the BD FACSPresto system for CD4 absolute count (CD4Abs), %CD4, and Hb concentration. Device: BD FACSCalibur flow cytometer Blood samples will be tested on the predicate, currently marketed device. For CD4Abs and %CD4 measurement, the BD FACSCalibur flow cytometer will be used with BD Multiset software version 1.1 or later and BD Tritest CD3/CD4/CD45 reagent with Trucount tubes. Device: Sysmex hematology analyzer KX-21 Blood samples will be tested for hemoglobic concentration on the predicate, currently marketed Sysmex hematology analyzer KX-21 |
- Method bias between BD FACSPresto System vs. Predicate in venous blood (AbsCD4 and %CD4) [ Time Frame: assayed upon sample collection ]The primary endpoint is the bias (expected difference) between the investigational vs. predicate system measured as absolute CD4 lymphocyte count and %CD4 in peripheral venous blood from a minimum of 400 specimens with valid results tested at three or more external sites.
- Method bias between BD FACSPresto System vs. Predicate in Capillary Blood (AbsCD4 and %CD4) [ Time Frame: assayed upon sample collection ]The bias (expected difference) between the investigational vs. predicate system measured as absolute CD4 lymphocyte count and %CD4 in capillary blood from a minimum of 400 specimens with valid results tested will be determined at three or more external sites.
- Method bias between BD FACSPresto System vs. Predicate for Hemoglobin [ Time Frame: assayed upon sample collection ]The bias (expected difference) between the investigational BD FACSPresto system vs. predicate (Sysmex KX-21 hematology analyzer) will be determined for hemoglobin concentration using venous blood and capillary blood.
