UNSPSC 42296102: Temporary aneurysm clips

In this classification, this commodity indicates a product used as a temporary clip placed across the base, or neck, of the aneurysm to block the normal blood flow from entering in a medical setting. US FDA regulates Temporary aneurysm clips under 21 CFR 886.52 and under FDA product code HCH. Most nations, for tariff and trade purposes, schedule these products under HS 901839.

UNSPSC 42296102 Temporary aneurysm clips (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes neurosurgical vascular devices, yet the three most recent opportunities tagged to it encompass law enforcement equipment, cardiac rhythm management implants, and spinal fusion implants—none of which are temporary aneurysm clips or related neurovascular products. State and local health systems, county cooperative purchasing vehicles, and academic medical centers are the issuing bodies appearing in the recent record, but the solicitations they post under this code do not match its clinical scope.

Activity is geographically dispersed across Texas and Washington state, with Sourcewell (a Minnesota-based cooperative purchasing vehicle) managing multi-jurisdictional frameworks. Recent opportunities include Sourcewell RFP #061626 for law enforcement equipment (due June 16, 2026), the University Medical Center of El Paso RFP #784-03-26-001 for cardiac rhythm management devices (due April 29, 2026), and the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio RFP 745-26-P04 for spinal implants on a bill-only basis (due March 10, 2026). The code exhibits little relevant recent activity for neurovascular temporary aneurysm clips specifically; vendors in that specialty should monitor neurosurgical and hospital equipment categories rather than rely on this code's posting history.
