UNSPSC 42161618: Hemodialysis unit blood line clamps

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a blood line clamp used with a hemodialysis unit used in a hemodialysis procedure in a medical setting. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901832.

UNSPSC 42161618 Hemodialysis unit blood line clamps is a Commodity code that captures single-use and reusable clamps and hemostatic devices used in dialysis treatment to control blood flow through extracorporeal circuits. State and local procurement activity under this code reflects healthcare delivery through public hospitals, dialysis clinics operated by county health systems, and state Medicaid programs that purchase medical supplies for beneficiary care. The issuing bodies are primarily state agencies coordinating multi-entity medical-supply purchasing through cooperative vehicles, as evidenced by NASPO ValuePoint frameworks that pool demand across participating public entities to achieve volume pricing and standardized terms.

Recent opportunities show the code's activity concentrated in cooperative purchasing programs. Idaho state agencies and participating NASPO ValuePoint entities posted RFP NVP_1443 on October 6, 2026 for medical supplies including items under this commodity code, with proposals due November 9, 2026; the RFP seeks competitive unit pricing and catalogs across multiple product categories, with potential tiered discounts based on order volumes. While a separate Sourcewell RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment appeared in the recent-opportunities block, that solicitation is unrelated to hemodialysis supplies and does not represent activity under this code. Geographic spread is limited in the identifiable recent record to Idaho as the sponsoring state agency, reflecting the NASPO ValuePoint cooperative's multi-state framework model but without explicit evidence of parallel active solicitations in other states during this period.
