UNSPSC 85493803: Supplement pericardium with zooplastic tissue, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement pericardium with zooplastic tissue, open 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 02UN08Z

UNSPSC 85493803 Supplement pericardium with zooplastic tissue, open approach is a Commodity code that shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The code nominally describes a surgical medical procedure involving pericardial tissue supplementation. However, the recent solicitations posted under this code—including inmate medical and pharmacy services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary and urgent care services, peer support for peer workers, and fire department medical director services—do not align with surgical pericardial procedures or tissue-based medical interventions. State and local governments do not appear to be procuring pericardial zooplastic tissue or related surgical supplies under this code based on available recent opportunities.

The geographic spread of the unrelated opportunities spans Florida (Collier County, Monroe County), Georgia (Columbus Consolidated Government), California (San Mateo County), and California again (Santa Monica Fire Department), but these records suggest a coding mismatch rather than actual demand for the pericardial tissue product or service described by the code. No representative procurement activity directly supporting the code's nominal scope is evident in the recent-opportunities block. Firms pursuing this code should verify whether state and local purchasing offices are actually tagging pericardial tissue supply contracts under this UNSPSC designation in practice, as current signals suggest the code may see little to no relevant activity.
