In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a pneumatic or electric tourniquet during a surgical procedure in a medical setting. US FDA regulates surgical pneumatic or electric tourniquets under 21 CFR 878.5910 and under FDA product code KCY. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901890.

UNSPSC 42295122 Surgical pneumatic or electric tourniquets is a Commodity code that encompasses surgical tourniquet equipment for medical procedures performed in hospitals, surgical centers, and related healthcare settings. State and local governments acquire these devices primarily through cooperative purchasing vehicles and master agreements that aggregate demand across multiple agencies and jurisdictions to achieve volume-based pricing and standardized contracting terms. Issuing bodies include state health departments, state purchasing offices acting on behalf of participating entities, and regional cooperative purchasing consortiums that serve as intermediaries for collective procurement. The solicitations show that tourniquets are commonly bundled within broader medical-supplies master agreements rather than procured as standalone line items, reflecting how public-sector healthcare procurement consolidates equipment purchases to streamline vendor management and reduce administrative overhead.

Recent activity centers on NASPO ValuePoint cooperative-purchasing initiatives. In September and October 2026, NASPO ValuePoint (administered by South Dakota with sponsorship from Idaho state agencies) posted RFP 1433 for medical supplies with a November 9, 2026 response deadline; the solicitation encompasses multiple medical-product categories and seeks master agreements to establish favorable pricing and terms across participating state and local entities. The RFP permits bidders' conferences and requires comprehensive product catalogs and competitive unit pricing, with potential volume discounts. Set-asides or preferences for small business or Idaho-based vendors may apply according to state policy but are not specified in the available overview. No recent opportunities focused exclusively on surgical tourniquets; the code's recent activity reflects demand flowing through broader medical-supplies frameworks rather than narrowly scoped procurements.
