UNSPSC 42271709: Medical nasal cannulas

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product that is a hollow needle commonly used with a syringe to inject or extract substances or fluids associated with a medical nasal procedure. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901831.

UNSPSC 42271709 Medical nasal cannulas is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement shows minimal relevant activity; the posted opportunities are tagged to this code but describe cooperative medical-supplies master agreements and equipment repair or capital acquisitions unrelated to nasal cannula procurement. The two NASPO ValuePoint medical-supplies RFPs (NVP_1443 and RFP 1433) establish framework agreements for broad medical-supplies categories across multiple state and local entities, with vendor proposals due November 9, 2026, but the available solicitation summaries do not itemize nasal cannulas or other specific commodity breakdowns. The remaining opportunities in the dataset—energy recovery ventilator repair (City of Augusta, Georgia), tent purchase and installation (Mt. San Antonio Community College District), AED equipment and accessories (Cobb County School District), ventilator maintenance and repair (Hillsborough County), and law enforcement equipment (Sourcewell)—do not address respiratory or oxygen-delivery supplies and appear to be misfiled under this code.

The NASPO ValuePoint solicitations, which represent the only potentially relevant activity, target state agencies and participating public entities across multiple states, with South Dakota administering one vehicle and Idaho hosting the solicitation portal for the other. Beyond these two RFPs, the code shows no substantive recent state and local procurement signals for nasal cannulas. Business development professionals should monitor the NASPO ValuePoint awards when posted to assess whether nasal cannulas or oxygen-delivery accessories are included in the resulting master agreements, but should not assume current opportunity flow under this code based on the posted record.
