UNSPSC 42203425: Thrombectomy or embolectomy catheters

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a flexible tube inserted through a narrow opening in a thronbectomy or embolectomy procedure. US FDA regulates Thrombectomy or embolectomy catheters under 21 CFR 870.1250 and under FDA product code NRY. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42203425 Thrombectomy or embolectomy catheters (Commodity) shows minimal recent state and local activity aligned with its nominal scope — the two posted opportunities involve occupational medical surveillance services for ferry workers and a blanket purchase agreement for mixed medical supplies and equipment for a state residential facility, neither of which center on thrombectomy or embolectomy catheters as the primary procurement focus. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission solicitation does reference catheters among nine line items covering gastrostomy feeding tubes, IV stabilization devices, feeding tubes, syringes, enteral feeding sets, SpO2 sensors, and IV pole clamps, but the catheter component appears secondary to a broader medical supply and equipment category rather than a specialist vascular intervention tool. The Washington State Department of Transportation solicitation concerns occupational health surveillance and contains no medical device procurement at all, suggesting the code may be receiving misclassified tags in state and local procurement systems.

The two opportunities span Texas and Washington with response dates in July and October 2026 respectively. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission is soliciting an IFB due July 30, 2026 for medical supplies and equipment for the Abilene State Supported Living Center, structured as a blanket purchase agreement running September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027 with an optional one-year extension, and the Washington State Department of Transportation (on behalf of Washington State Ferries) posted an RFP due October 9, 2026 for occupational medical surveillance services across 14 Washington ferry locations. Neither opportunity demonstrates sustained or concentrated demand for thrombectomy or embolectomy catheters specifically, and the code warrants close monitoring for actual vascular intervention device solicitations or reclassification in state procurement systems.
