UNSPSC 41131603: Vacuum-assisted blood collection system

In this classification, a vacuum-assisted blood collection system is a device intended for medical purposes that uses a vacuum to draw blood for subsequent reinfusion. US FDA regulates Vacuum-assisted blood collection system under 21 CFR 864.9125 and under FDA product code KST.

UNSPSC 41131603 Vacuum-assisted blood collection system is a Commodity code that encompasses blood transfusion and collection equipment used by emergency medical services, hospital systems, and public safety agencies. State and local governments procure blood warmers, associated consumable bags, and specialized medical transport equipment under this code to support emergency medical response and transfusion procedures across facilities and transport operations. Issuing bodies include state emergency medical services boards, county fire rescue departments, and other public safety agencies responsible for emergency medical transport and treatment infrastructure.

The code shows limited recent activity in state and local procurement. California's Emergency Medical Services Board solicited blood transfusion equipment (including Qinflow Warrior Blood Warmer systems and T-SPEC Meret transport bags) under Measure B funding via RFQ RFBIS27200126 with a response deadline of September 9, 2026, requiring CBE certification as a mandatory prerequisite. A second opportunity posted by Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners (ITB2600319, due July 24, 2026, estimated value $765,679.84) was tagged to this code but comprised janitorial and operational supplies for fire stations rather than blood collection or transfusion equipment, indicating a classification mismatch in that particular posting. Recent activity centers on California and Florida, though the volume of actual blood collection or transfusion equipment solicitations under this code remains sparse in the visible market.
