UNSPSC 51132300: Combination volume expanders

This classification denotes combination drugs and preparations which liquid used to replace blood plasma, usually a saline solution, often with serum albumins, typically to treat dehydration, and these replace blood volume, hence the term VOLUME EXPANDERS. Typical combination volume expanders constituents are dextran 40, dextran 70, dextran 75, and hetastarch.

UNSPSC 51132300 Combination volume expanders, a Class code, covers fluid resuscitation products that state and local governments procure for emergency medical services, hospitals, and disaster response — specifically crystalloid and colloid solutions, normal saline, lactated Ringer's, and related IV fluids used in acute care and trauma settings. The source provides no recent state and local contract opportunities under this code.

Without documented recent activity in the opportunities block, pursuit cannot be evaluated against current market signals. Monitor state health department RFQs, hospital system cooperative purchasing vehicles, and county EMS procurement notices for entry points into this category, particularly following natural disasters or public health emergencies when volume-expander demand spikes.
