UNSPSC 42211527: Central venous or arterial line contamination shields

Catheter shields act to reduce central line infections by limiting potential contamination.

UNSPSC 42211527 Central venous or arterial line contamination shields is a Commodity code. The recent state and local solicitations tagged under this code show little activity directly aligned with the code's nominal scope—none of the posted opportunities explicitly solicit central venous or arterial line shields. Instead, the opportunities span broad MRO master agreements, AED equipment, medical equipment maintenance, ophthalmic instruments, group purchasing organization services, laser and surgical power equipment, evacuation chairs, and pharmaceutical packaging systems. This mismatch between code designation and actual procurement content suggests that either the code is rarely used for its intended product category, or these particular opportunities have been misclassified in the source data. The issuing bodies that do appear include municipal governments (City of Tucson, City of Palm Bay, City of Dallas, City of Owensboro), counties (Hillsborough County, San Mateo County, Santa Clara County, Clay County, Marion County, Cobb County School District), regional authorities (Huron Valley Schools through cooperative purchasing), and specialized public agencies (San Mateo Medical Center, University of Wisconsin-Madison, Superior Court of Los Angeles). The geographic spread spans Florida (Hillsborough, Marion, Palm Bay), California (San Mateo, Santa Clara, Los Angeles), Arizona (Tucson), Michigan (Huron Valley), Texas (Dallas, Owensboro-Kentucky actually), Georgia (Cobb), and New Hampshire.

Representative recent opportunities include the City of Tucson's RFP #240078 for comprehensive Maintenance, Repair, and Operations supplies with a March 28, 2024 response date (noted as due March 28, 2024, though posted September 30, 2026—an apparent date inconsistency in the source) seeking master-agreement MRO distribution across 25 product categories; Hillsborough County's ITB 26-00275 for Vyaire LTV 1200 ventilator maintenance and repair services, bids due June 12, 2026; and Huron Valley Schools' RFQ through the CoPro+ cooperative purchasing vehicle for AED equipment, inspection, and maintenance services, proposals due September 25, 2026. The code shows no recent solicitations explicitly purchasing central venous or arterial line contamination shields, indicating minimal or no current demand activity under the code's core scope.
