UNSPSC 42161659: Hemodialysis catheters

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a flexible tube inserted through a narrow opening into the kidney for a hemodialysis procedure. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42161659 Hemodialysis catheters is a Commodity code; the recent state and local opportunities on file show no solicitations for hemodialysis catheters or related dialysis supplies. The two most recent postings under this code are a Sourcewell cooperative purchasing RFP for law enforcement equipment (issued on behalf of multiple Washington counties and thousands of public entities nationwide) and a Klein Independent School District RFP for Career Technical Education and Advanced Academics instructional resources and equipment across 17 program areas. Neither opportunity involves hemodialysis equipment, dialysis consumables, or medical device procurement aligned with the code's nominal scope. The mismatch indicates that either the code was applied incorrectly during opportunity indexing or that hemodialysis catheters see minimal procurement activity through state and local channels in the available dataset.

No representative recent opportunities for hemodialysis catheters under this code are supported by the source. The code shows little relevant recent activity, and pursuing this code for business development purposes would require direct outreach to state health departments, county health agencies, hospital procurement departments, and dialysis service providers rather than reliance on public solicitation records. If hemodialysis catheter sourcing through state and local cooperative purchasing agreements or individual jurisdiction contracts is a market of interest, monitor this code for future activity or investigate parallel medical device and supplies codes that may capture dialysis-related procurement more accurately.
