This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of ductus arteriosus with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach.

UNSPSC 85491807 Dilation of ductus arteriosus with intraluminal device, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code that shows little relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope—a specialized pediatric cardiology procedure—does not align with the recent state and local solicitations tagged to it. Those opportunities instead cover occupational medical surveillance services (Washington State Department of Transportation), independent medical evaluations for disability benefit determinations (City of Phoenix), surgical procedure carve-out networks for employee health plans (City of Long Beach), emergency and specialty healthcare for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary health professional staffing (County of Santa Clara). None of these transactions involve interventional cardiology devices or the specific procedural service the code describes.

The geographic and issuing-body distribution across the sample reflects general state and local healthcare purchasing rather than procurement related to the code's stated scope: a state transportation agency, two city health and benefits offices, a county juvenile probation department, a county benefits consortium, and a county health system. The mismatch between the code's clinical specificity and the breadth of the tagged solicitations suggests either miscoding in the source data or use of this code as a catchall for medical services outside its intended taxonomy tier. State and local buyers pursuing this code should verify the code assignment in individual RFPs before submitting proposals.
