UNSPSC 85512555: Bypass abdominal aorta to mesenteric artery with synthetic substitute, open approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to bypass abdominal aorta to mesenteric artery with synthetic 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 04100J2

UNSPSC 85512555 Bypass abdominal aorta to mesenteric artery with synthetic substitute, open approach (Commodity) shows minimal recent activity aligned with its stated medical device scope. The recent opportunities tagged under this code do not involve vascular grafts, synthetic substitutes, or aortic bypass procedures; instead, they cover independent medical evaluations for disability pension determinations, occupational health surveillance, pharmacy benefit management, temporary health professional staffing, surgical benefit programs, and emergency medical services for youth in custody. The code appears to have been applied as a catchall for health-care-related procurement rather than reserved for the specific surgical implant described in its name.

No state or local solicitations in the recent-opportunities block are actually procuring bypass grafts, vascular devices, or related supplies matching the Commodity's technical description. The source documents show health system and county human resources departments issuing RFPs and RFQs for administrative and clinical staffing services, benefit plan management, and occupational health programs — categories orthogonal to surgical implants. Without genuine market activity for aortic bypass devices under this code, the code presents limited procurement development opportunity at the state and local level based on current posting patterns.
