UNSPSC 42161911 Therapeutic apheresis machine return chamber air detectors is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned to its nominal scope. The recent opportunities posted under this code show little relevance to therapeutic apheresis equipment; instead, they span laser equipment for operating rooms, surgical power instruments, ventilator maintenance, law enforcement equipment, emergency medical infusion systems, educational instructional resources, ultrasound machines, and spinal implants. State and local issuing bodies using this code include county health systems, county commissioners' boards, school districts, colleges, and state cooperative purchasing vehicles. The mismatch between the code's stated focus and the actual solicitations suggests either tagging errors in the source data or that this code serves as a catch-all classification for specialized medical device components without dedicated commodity assignments in routine procurement practice.

The geographic spread of opportunities includes California (San Mateo County), Florida (Hillsborough County, Marion County, Valencia College), Texas (Klein ISD in Harris County, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio), Washington (Sourcewell on behalf of Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties), and Minnesota (Sourcewell). Recent representative solicitations include San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for laser equipment and technical support for operating room use (due July 10, 2026), Hillsborough County's ITB for three-year maintenance and repair services on 40 Vyaire Medical LTV 1200 ventilators with an estimated contract value of $140,225 (due June 12, 2026), and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio's RFP for spinal implants on a bill-only basis for its 144-bed Multispecialty and Research Hospital (due March 10, 2026). No recent opportunities specifically soliciting therapeutic apheresis machine air detectors or related components appear in the source data.
