UNSPSC 85711052: Removal of drainage device from right sternoclavicular joint, external approach

This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a surgical intervention or procedure to removal of drainage device from right sternoclavicular joint, external 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 0RPEX0Z

UNSPSC 85711052 Removal of drainage device from right sternoclavicular joint, external approach (Commodity) shows no relevant recent activity under state and local procurement. The code's nominal scope — a specific surgical procedure — does not align with the state and local opportunities recently tagged under this code. The recent solicitations instead reflect health services administration, occupational medical surveillance, pharmacy benefits management, temporary clinical staffing, and surgical network curation — none of which involve orthopedic device removal.

The mismatch between code label and actual buying activity suggests either a classification error in the source data or that this Commodity code is not actively used for state and local government procurement. No representative opportunities exist to characterize issuing-body mix, geographic spread, or the kinds of vendors likely to pursue work under it. For business development purposes, this code should be treated as dormant pending clarification of how state and local procurement offices actually classify orthopedic surgical services or device-removal procedures.
