UNSPSC 42142725 External urethral occluders is a Commodity code that encompasses specialized continence-management devices and urological supplies procured by state health and human services agencies and municipal emergency-response departments. Recent state and local solicitations under this code show purchasing of medical supplies including catheters, urological devices, and related continence products, often as part of broader blanket purchase agreements for facility-based or emergency-services medical inventories.

The code sees activity from both facility-based procurement (long-term care and state institutions) and emergency-services purchasing arms.
