UNSPSC 42142809 Vascular compression stockings, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local opportunities currently posted under this classification. Recent solicitations tagged to this code are procurement defibrillators, cardiac monitors, related medical emergency equipment, and medical first-aid supplies—none of which are vascular compression stockings. The code shows minimal relevant activity; the mismatch suggests either a cataloging error in the state and local systems or that vascular compression stockings are not a meaningful procurement focus in the current opportunity set.

The recent opportunities that do appear under this code reflect emergency medical equipment procurement across diverse issuing bodies—school districts (Cobb County School District, Georgia), county governments (Harris County, Texas; Marion County, Florida; Collier County, Florida), cities (City of Dallas, Texas; City of Tampa, Florida; City of Orlando, Florida; City of Eugene, Oregon), and cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell on behalf of multiple Washington state counties including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima). The scope of work includes AED units and batteries (Cobb County, Harris County, Tampa), defibrillator service plans and maintenance agreements (Orlando Fire Department, Collier County), blood pressure cuffs and monitoring accessories (Marion County), and broader law enforcement and medical supply portfolios (Sourcewell, Tampa Fire Department Rescue Division). Representative solicitations include Cobb County School District's RFQ for AED equipment and accessories (Q27009, due July 6, 2026, estimated $50,000); Harris County's RFP for Automatic External Defibrillators and Related Items (260079, due May 18, 2026); and the City of Tampa's competitive bid for Cardiac Science Powerheart G5 AEDs and accessories (26P00028, estimated $60,000, with SLBE sheltered-market designation).
