UNSPSC 42294214: Tracheotomy surgical instrument sets

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a set of tracheotomy surgical instruments during a surgical procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Tracheotomy surgical instrument sets under 21 CFR 878.48 and under FDA product code KDD. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901849.

UNSPSC 42294214 Tracheotomy surgical instrument sets is a Commodity code, but the recent state and local opportunities posted under this code show minimal alignment with the nominal scope. Instead, the activity centers on Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs), AED batteries and accessories, cardiac monitors, and related emergency medical equipment—notably defibrillator pads and monitoring devices tied to existing emergency response infrastructure rather than tracheotomy instrumentation. School districts, county governments, state health agencies, and municipal fire-rescue departments are the primary issuing bodies, with recurring solicitations from Cobb County School District (Georgia), Harris County and Bryan County (Texas), Sarasota County (Florida), Marion County (Florida), and the City of Dallas. Procurement volume tends toward equipment replacements and accessory replenishment tied to existing deployments; for example, Sarasota County sought sixty-two Cardiac Science G5 AED batteries manufactured in the current year with four-year warranty, while Marion County sought blood pressure cuffs and hoses compatible with the LIFEPAK 15S defibrillator already in use by its fire-rescue department. The code shows no recent activity soliciting actual tracheotomy surgical instrument sets.

Recent opportunities span multiple states with notable concentration in Texas, Georgia, and Florida. The State of Colorado pursued a sole-source procurement of LIFEPAK monitor/defibrillators from Stryker (challenge period closed September 28, 2026), while the State of Georgia issued RFQ#26-210 for AEDs with quotes due September 2, 2026. NASPO ValuePoint (the cooperative purchasing consortium) is administering two overlapping medical-supplies master-agreement RFPs—NVP_1443 and RFP 1433—sponsored by Idaho state agencies and open to state and local entities across multiple jurisdictions, with proposals due November 9, 2026. Utica Community Schools (Michigan) requested bids for AEDs through October 28, 2026, and Cobb County School District issued separate solicitations in June and July 2026 for AED equipment, batteries, and accessories with estimated expenditures near $50,000 each. The Texas Health and Human Services Commission included defibrillator pads among miscellaneous supplies for the Denton State Supported Living Center (IFB HHS0017685, bids due August 19, 2026), referencing $50,000 as the prior-period historical value. Sourcewell issued RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment (deadline June 16, 2026), which may encompass emergency medical devices for police departments across multiple Pacific Northwest and national jurisdictions. The code's recent posting pattern does not support procurement of tracheotomy surgical instruments and appears misaligned with actual buyer intent.
