UNSPSC 42203430 Electrophysiology catheters, a Commodity code, addresses specialized medical devices state and local health agencies and emergency-response departments procure for patient care and acute treatment. Recent solicitations show state and local governments buying electrophysiology catheters alongside related devices — gastrostomy and feeding tubes, IV stabilization equipment, endotracheal tubes, airway devices, and cardiac monitoring electrodes — typically bundled with broader medical supply line items rather than as standalone purchases. The issuing bodies span state health and human services departments operating long-term care facilities, city fire and rescue divisions, and other emergency medical services operations. Vendors include established medical suppliers such as Cardinal Health, C.R. Bard, Becton Dickinson, and Nonin, with contracts structured as blanket purchase agreements or term-supply awards spanning one to three years.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission issued IFB HHS0017603 in July 2026 for medical supplies and equipment including catheters for the Abilene State Supported Living Center, with bids due July 30, 2026; the resulting contract runs September 1, 2026 through August 31, 2027, with an option for one additional year. The City of Tampa Purchasing Department solicited medical and first aid supplies (Bid 26-P-00145) for the Tampa Fire Department Rescue Division in March 2026, an estimated $700,000 award restricted to certified Small Local Business Enterprises with a 5% bid discount (not to exceed $10,000), covering 169 line items with a one-year base term and two optional one-year renewals. Both procurements require firm, fixed pricing, material compliance with safety and accessibility standards, and expedited delivery — typically five working days from purchase order receipt.
