UNSPSC 42181807: Reprocessed pulse oximeter probes or sensors

In this classification, this commodity indicates the Reprocessed (Reprocessing medical devices is a process that involves cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and other procedures to make used devices safe for reuse) probes or sensors used in association with a product that records the level of oxygen saturation in a human.

UNSPSC 42181807 Reprocessed pulse oximeter probes or sensors is a Commodity code. State and local governments procure pulse oximeters and related respiratory monitoring equipment primarily through healthcare systems, emergency medical services agencies, and public health departments for clinical diagnostics, emergency response, and patient monitoring. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations directly aligned with this code. The one opportunity explicitly tagged to 42181807 — the Clay County Procurement Conference on November 12, 2026 — is a networking and educational event, not a procurement of reprocessed probes or sensors. The remaining opportunities in the source describe medical supplies, equipment, and services across a broader spectrum: EMS pharmaceuticals and vending machines (Tucson Fire), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), ophthalmic instruments (Santa Clara County), oxygen and respiratory therapy services (Colorado), medical supply kits for public health Points of Dispensing (Ohio Board of Health), and simulation equipment (Texas Southern University). None of these are reprocessed pulse oximeter probes.

The code shows little relevant recent state and local procurement activity in the opportunities dataset. Reprocessed medical device markets operate differently than general medical supplies — they depend on FDA reprocessing clearances, vendor relationships with original equipment manufacturers or device distributors, and specialized credentials that typical state and local procurement offices may address through standing master agreements or national cooperative purchasing vehicles rather than open competitive solicitations. Business development professionals evaluating this code should verify whether their firm holds the necessary FDA authorizations and reprocessing certifications, then focus prospecting on health systems, EMS agencies, and public health authorities known to purchase reprocessed equipment categories, rather than relying on open solicitation activity to surface opportunities.
