This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to supplement aortic valve with autologous tissue substitute, 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 02UF07Z

UNSPSC 85494132 Supplement aortic valve with autologous tissue substitute, open approach is a Commodity code that does not align with the recent state and local contract opportunities in the source material. The code describes a specific surgical implant procedure, yet the opportunities posted show no procurement of cardiac surgical supplies or aortic valve devices; instead, they cover inmate medical services, pharmacy benefit management, virtual primary care, peer worker support services, and fire department medical direction.

The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual solicitation activity indicates minimal relevant recent procurement under this code. State and local governments do not appear to be issuing RFPs, RFQs, or IFBs for aortic valve implants or related cardiac surgical supplies through the sources tracked here. Vendors pursuing work in cardiac implant supply to state or local health systems, correctional facilities, or county-operated clinics should not rely on this code classification to identify opportunities; instead, they should monitor broader procurement for medical supplies, hospital contracting, and specialty pharmacy management where such devices might be embedded within larger integrated healthcare RFPs.
