UNSPSC 42295475 Surgical drain or set accessories is a Commodity code capturing surgical instrumentation and extraction systems that state and local health systems procure to support inpatient and outpatient surgical procedures. Recent solicitations show that purchasing bodies are acquiring not only drain-related accessories but also broader surgical extraction and implant systems — most prominently orthopedic hardware removal and extraction systems, spinal implants with associated instrumentation, and law enforcement equipment through cooperative purchasing vehicles. The issuing bodies span public hospital systems (San Mateo Medical Center, University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio), university-affiliated research hospitals, and cooperative purchasing units acting on behalf of state and local jurisdictions. Scope requirements typically mandate FDA approval or CE certification, five or more years of demonstrated experience with the specific product category, and the ability to support acute-care hospital operations with emergency and scheduled delivery windows, inventory management, and technical support staff positioned regionally.

Recent activity appears concentrated in California and Texas. San Mateo Medical Center posted an RFP on July 1, 2026 for orthopedic hardware removal and extraction system services with a three-year contract term, requiring ISO 13485:2016 certification, Northern California–based technical support, and compliance with San Mateo County's local-business preference of 5 to 10 percent and living wage requirements of $17.00 per hour. The University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio issued RFP 745-26-P04 in January 2026 for spinal implants and related surgical supplies on a bill-only basis for its newly opened 144-bed Multispecialty and Research Hospital, with proposals due March 10, 2026, multi-award structure, and mandatory Historically Underutilized Business subcontracting plans. A Sourcewell cooperative procurement (RFP #061626) posted in May 2026 sought law enforcement equipment for use by multiple Washington counties and participating entities nationwide, though this opportunity appears mistagged against the surgical drain code and does not align with the code's medical device scope. No volume guarantees or specific dollar values are disclosed in any of the recent solicitations.
