UNSPSC 42142631 Syringe, luer slip is a Commodity code that captures individual syringe products, typically luer-slip (non-locking) connectors, procured as medical consumables by state and local healthcare systems. The code appears in procurement activity centered on hospital, long-term care, and emergency medical service supply chains. State and local buyers use this code when sourcing syringes as part of broader medical supply replenishment, often bundled with related infusion equipment, feeding tubes, catheters, and other clinical consumables. Issuing bodies span state health and human services departments, county health agencies, municipal fire and rescue operations, and individual healthcare facilities or higher-education institutions that operate clinical services.
