UNSPSC 85541842: Occlusion of thoracic duct, percutaneous approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to occlusion of thoracic duct, percutaneous 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 07LK3ZZ

UNSPSC 85541842 Occlusion of thoracic duct, percutaneous approach is a Commodity code whose nominal scope—a surgical procedure to block the thoracic duct through a percutaneous approach—bears no relationship to recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it. The recent opportunities block contains no solicitations for thoracic duct procedures or related surgical supplies. Instead, the tagged opportunities span occupational medical surveillance, independent medical evaluations for pension disability determinations, pharmacy benefit management, surgical procedure carve-out benefits for municipal employees, temporary health professional staffing, and specialty medical services for detained youth. These represent administrative health benefits management and staffing, not cardiothoracic surgery or interventional radiology services. The code shows little relevant recent activity for the product or service it nominally describes.

The geographic spread of the mismatched opportunities spans Arizona (Phoenix), California (Long Beach, Santa Clara County), Washington State (Washington State Ferries), and Texas (Harris County), with no clear concentration. The issuing bodies include city retirement offices, city human resources departments, county boards of commissioners, county health systems, state transportation agencies, and county juvenile justice authorities. Without solicitations actually purchasing thoracic duct occlusion procedures or related supplies, this code does not present a meaningful market signal for business development purposes under its stated scope.
