UNSPSC 42292508: Reprocessed/ sustainable surgical pneumatic or electric tourniquets

In this classification, this commodity indicates a Reprocessed (Reprocessing medical devices is a process that involves cleaning, disinfection, sterilization, and other procedures to make used devices safe for reuse) or Sustainable (made with recycled materials) product used as a pneumatic or electric tourniquet during a surgical procedure in a medical setting.

UNSPSC 42292508 Reprocessed/sustainable surgical pneumatic or electric tourniquets is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code do not reflect tourniquet procurement. Instead, the opportunities tagged to this code span medical diagnostic and surgical equipment, including ultrasound systems, laser equipment, surgical power instruments, ventilator maintenance, law enforcement equipment, and emergency medical infusion systems. State and local issuers soliciting under this code include county health systems and hospitals (San Mateo County Medical Center, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, Marion County), community colleges (Valencia College), cooperative purchasing vehicles (Sourcewell), and special-purpose public entities. The work actually being pursued consists of capital medical equipment acquisition and maintenance services rather than tourniquet supply or reprocessing—a significant mismatch between the code's nominal scope and current procurement activity.

The geographic spread of recent activity includes Florida (Valencia College in Osceola County, Hillsborough County, Marion County), California (San Mateo County), Washington (Sourcewell cooperative members including Franklin, Grant, Grays Harbor, Chelan, and Yakima Counties), and nationwide reach through Sourcewell's multi-jurisdictional cooperative framework. Representative recent opportunities include San Mateo Medical Center's RFP for laser equipment and OR technical support (posted August 21, 2026, proposal deadline June 10, 2026); San Mateo County's RFP for surgical power equipment to replace obsolete instruments, with a five-year contract term and proposal deadline of May 28, 2026 (posted May 7, 2026); Hillsborough County's ITB 26-00275 for three-year maintenance and repair services on 40 Vyaire Medical LTV 1200 ventilators, estimated at $140,225, with bids due June 12, 2026; and Sourcewell's RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment on behalf of multiple participating counties, proposals due June 16, 2026. The code shows little relevant recent activity for its stated tourniquet scope.
