UNSPSC 85493559: Replacement of atrial septum with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to replacement of atrial septum with synthetic 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 02R54JZ

UNSPSC 85493559 Replacement of atrial septum with synthetic substitute, percutaneous endoscopic approach (Commodity) shows no procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. The code describes a specific cardiac surgical procedure, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it are unrelated to cardiac device procurement or implantable medical technology: they span independent medical evaluation services for disability determinations, occupational medical surveillance, surgical care network management, pharmacy benefit administration, and temporary health professional staffing. State and local governments do not appear to be purchasing atrial septum replacement devices or related implantable cardiac technology through commodity procurement under this code.

The mismatch between the code's technical definition and actual buying activity indicates either a classification error in the source data or that this code is not a relevant vehicle for state and local procurement professionals. No representative opportunities with response dates, issuing bodies, or dollar values support a credible market characterization under the code's stated scope. Bidders seeking state and local opportunities in medical devices, cardiac surgery support, or related ancillary services should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before pursuing activity under this code.
