UNSPSC 42142119 Hypothermia apparatus is a Commodity code. State and local procurement under this code shows minimal recent activity directly aligned with the nominal scope. The recent opportunities tagged with this code include a Texas Health and Human Services Commission RFP for Durable Medical Equipment and Services (HHS0017173, due June 2, 2026), which encompasses respiratory supplies, CPAP devices, hearing aids, orthotics, prosthetics, positioning devices, wheelchairs, and wound care supplies across eleven DME categories serving individuals with traumatic brain injuries and spinal cord injuries across Texas service regions. A California Department of Health Services RFB (RFBIS26200998, due June 12, 2026) sought bids for SciFit Pro2 equipment, but the summary provides no specifications beyond the equipment model name, leaving scope unclear. The remaining opportunities in the dataset—athletic training services for Tucson Fire and Police, law enforcement equipment through a Sourcewell cooperative, school district supplies, and detention-center behavioral coaching—bear no apparent connection to hypothermia apparatus or thermal management medical devices and appear to represent tagging mismatches rather than genuine procurement activity under this code.

The code shows issuing activity from state health agencies and school districts, concentrated in Texas and California. Beyond the Texas HHSC DME procurement (a master-contract structure offering approximately $1,000,000 per state fiscal year with a not-to-exceed cumulative value of $5,000,000 and a HUB set-aside with a 21.1 percent utilization goal), the recent-opportunities block records no additional state or local solicitations for hypothermia apparatus, thermal management devices, or closely related medical equipment. No representative opportunities exist that confirm active demand for this specific commodity in state or local procurement right now. Vendors should verify whether the few opportunities posted under this code genuinely require hypothermia apparatus or represent classification errors before committing pursuit resources.
