The SediVue Dx analyzer is for veterinary use only.
None to Rare—For most sediment, this indicates the neural network detected fewer than
1 element/HPF (or LPF for casts). This generally means that the number found for a particular
formed element is below the reporting threshold and is typically not considered clinically significant
as published in the majority of veterinary textbooks and academic journals. Since the SediVue Dx is
analyzing 45 HPF, which is up to four times more material than the typical 10 HPF reviewed during
manual microscopy, there is a potential for finding a single (or very few) element(s) that would have
normally been reported as “none seen” by a veterinary or reference laboratory technician with the
manual method. For bacteria, none to rare indicates the neural network characterized the sample
as unlikely to contain bacteria.
Suspect Presence—The SediVue Dx recognizes some features or attributes of a particular
element (cocci, rods, casts, etc.); however, there may not be not enough features present to provide
a “present” message. Image review is strongly recommended for confirmation.
Present—There is a high confidence in the presence of the particular element reported (cocci,
rods).
