UNSPSC 42142547: Winged infusion needle set

Needles that can be used for both infusion and blood collection.

UNSPSC 42142547 Winged infusion needle set (Commodity) supplies emergency medical services and hospital-based acute care operations with intraosseous infusion needles—devices that establish rapid vascular access during time-sensitive patient care and resuscitation. State and local procurement under this code reflects the specialized role of these needles in pre-hospital EMS, hospital emergency departments, and clinical training environments. Issuing bodies include county emergency services departments (particularly EMS divisions), municipal fire and rescue departments, county health authorities, and educational institutions such as universities and school districts with medical or healthcare training programs. The procurement mix spans both routine supply orders and sole-source acquisitions restricted to specific manufacturers.

Recent opportunities cluster in Texas and Florida, with activity also in Colorado, Wisconsin, Ohio, and California. Williamson County, Texas has posted multiple recent solicitations for EMS medical supplies, including a sole-source procurement (26SS60, July 7, 2026) specifically for EZ-IO intraosseous infusion needles, stabilizers, and drills restricted to Teleflex Medical Incorporated. Marion County, Florida issued procurement 09SS-103 (May 11, 2026) for Vidacare EZ-IO infusion systems. The City of Tucson Fire Department's RFP 260217 (June 24, 2026 response deadline, federally funded through ARPA, HUD, and FTA) encompasses BLS and ALS pharmaceuticals and supplies with 251 line items including IV administration sets and airway management devices alongside VendNovation vending machine systems—a representative complex procurement mixing supply consumables with equipment and software. Smaller school-district and public-health procurements (Ohio Board of Health Event 6960 and 7054, May–June 2026) sought medical supplies for Points of Dispensing that included diagnostic equipment and first aid items. The code shows sustained demand from county emergency services and municipal fire departments as the primary repeat buyers, with episodic procurement from hospitals and public health agencies.
