UNSPSC 85493542: Replacement of right ventricle with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of right ventricle with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach. This surgical intervention or procedure is listed in the World Health Organization's International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems or ICD-10 as code 02RK4KZ

UNSPSC 85493542 Replacement of right ventricle with nonautologous tissue substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach is a Commodity code that shows no meaningful alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a specific surgical procedure—replacement of the right ventricle using nonautologous tissue via percutaneous endoscopic approach—but the six recent opportunities tagged to this code span independent medical evaluation services, surgical benefit carve-out programs, occupational medical surveillance, emergency medical services for detained youth, pharmacy benefit management, and temporary health professional staffing. None of these solicitations involve the acquisition or procurement of right ventricular replacement procedures or related implantable devices; the tagging appears to reflect a classification mismatch rather than genuine procurement demand under the code's stated scope.

The recent opportunities do reflect state and local investment in medical services administration, benefits management, and clinical staffing across multiple jurisdictions—including the City of Phoenix, City of Long Beach, Washington State Department of Transportation, Harris County, Collier County, and Santa Clara County—but these activities fall outside the specific surgical procedure the code describes. No state or local government appears to be soliciting the acquisition of right ventricular replacements or the contracting of providers to deliver this procedure as a line item. The code does not show current procurement activity worth pursuing for vendors focused on cardiac surgical devices, cardiac surgical services, or related implantable tissue substitutes.
