UNSPSC 85436805: The diagnosis of failed or difficult intubation

In this classification, this covers the group of activities that yields a diagnosis of failed or difficult intubation. Failed or difficult intubation is listed In The World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems (ICD-10) as a four-character category under code T88.4.

UNSPSC 85436805, Diagnosis of failed or difficult intubation, is a Commodity code that in recent state and local procurement activity spans diagnostic imaging systems, ultrasound equipment, and phlebotomy services—a scope considerably broader and more service-oriented than the narrow clinical intubation focus of the code's nominal name. State and local buying under this code includes Picture Archiving and Communication System (PACS) implementations with enterprise-grade imaging and data migration, portable ultrasound platforms with specialized probes and software licensing, and on-call clinical laboratory services such as phlebotomy. Issuing bodies include county health systems and medical centers, county procurement divisions sourcing specialized clinical equipment and services, and municipal police departments purchasing support services for forensic and evidentiary work. San Mateo Medical Center and Collier County appear as recent active buyers of imaging and diagnostic equipment; the Albuquerque Police Department represents municipal law-enforcement buyers of clinical support services.
