UNSPSC 42161616: Hemodialysis unit air bubble or foam or clot detectors or traps or alarms

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as an air bubble or foam or clot detectors or traps or alarm for a hemodialysis unit. US FDA regulates Hemodialysis unit air bubble or foam or clot detectors or traps or alarms under 21 CFR 876.5820 and under FDA product code MQS. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42161616 Hemodialysis unit air bubble or foam or clot detectors or traps or alarms is a Commodity code that describes detection and safety devices used in dialysis treatment delivery systems. State and local governments procure these components primarily through cooperative purchasing consortia and framework agreements that aggregate demand across multiple agencies and participating public entities. The devices themselves are medical equipment consumables and accessories that support patient safety during hemodialysis sessions by detecting and alarming on dangerous air or clot conditions in the dialysis circuit. Issuing bodies include state health and human services departments, public hospital systems, county health agencies, and university health centers that operate or supply dialysis clinics serving public beneficiary populations.

Recent activity shows minimal specific solicitations directly naming this commodity code. A NASPO ValuePoint RFP (NVP_1443) posted by Texas on behalf of Idaho state agencies on October 6, 2026, with proposals due November 9, 2026, encompasses medical supplies across multiple product categories through a cooperative purchasing framework; the scope is broad enough to potentially include dialysis-related equipment and accessories, but the summary does not isolate hemodialysis-specific detectors or traps as a line item. No other recent state or local solicitations in the source block target this code or closely related dialysis safety equipment. Geographic activity appears concentrated in the Upper Midwest and Mountain West, with Idaho and Texas serving as sponsoring or participating states in the visible cooperative purchasing vehicle. The code shows limited recent standalone activity at the commodity level; procurement under this code likely flows through broader medical supply or dialysis equipment framework contracts rather than discrete solicitations.
