This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to dilation of right ulnar artery, 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 03790ZZ

UNSPSC 85504176 Dilation of right ulnar artery, open approach (Commodity) does not align with state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific surgical procedure—vascular dilation performed by a physician in a hospital or clinical setting—yet the recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect administrative health services contracting, not clinical procedure provision or medical device supply.

The six recent opportunities show state and local governments procuring independent medical evaluation services (Phoenix Retirement Office), surgical benefit carve-out network management (City of Long Beach), occupational health surveillance (Washington State Ferries), emergency and specialty care for detained youth (Harris County), pharmacy benefit management (Collier County), and temporary ancillary health professional staffing (Santa Clara County Health System). None of these solicitations involve the performance of vascular dilation procedures, the supply of instruments or devices for such procedures, or the clinical provision of that specific intervention. The mislabeling appears systematic across all six opportunities, suggesting the code was applied during intake without validation against the scope of work. State and local procurement activity under this code shows no relevant opportunities for firms positioned to deliver the actual clinical or supply-chain service the code nominates.
