UNSPSC 42171809 Mobile medical services suction antichoke devices, a Commodity code, encompasses equipment designed to prevent airway obstruction during emergency medical transport and field care. State and local governments procure these devices as part of broader EMS supply contracts, though the code itself sees limited standalone solicitation activity relative to the larger EMS equipment and supply category. Recent opportunities show these devices embedded within comprehensive emergency medical services procurement rather than as discrete line items, indicating that buyers typically source suction equipment and airway management products through master supply agreements with EMS vendors rather than through targeted single-commodity bids.

The issuing bodies soliciting EMS equipment across this code's scope span county emergency services departments, city fire rescue operations, and regional emergency management agencies. Repeat buyers include Williamson County, Texas (EMS supply procurement 26IFB63 due August 4, 2026); Henry County, Georgia (miscellaneous medical supplies for Fire Department, due April 8, 2026); and Orange County, Florida (five-year EMS equipment contract Y25-1067-KS for Fire Rescue). The City of Tucson Fire Department (federally funded through ARPA, HUD, and FTA) ran an RFP for BLS/ALS pharmaceuticals and supplies with vending machine integration due June 24, 2026, reflecting the trend toward integrated supply-and-logistics platforms. Clay County, Florida (RFB on EMS medical supplies due June 1, 2026) and Bernalillo County, New Mexico (RFB 46-26-JM for EMS medical products, approximately $240,000 annually, due May 21, 2026) demonstrate consistent demand across the Southeast and Southwest. Geographic activity concentrates in Texas, Florida, Georgia, and New Mexico, with additional procurement in Ohio (Public Health PODs), Arizona (Tucson), and other scattered jurisdictions. The code shows modest but steady activity—most opportunities bundle suction and airway management equipment within broader EMS medical supply contracts rather than isolating them, suggesting that direct competition for suction antichoke devices occurs primarily within master agreements established by large county or municipal fire rescue systems.
