UNSPSC 85801572 Immobilization of right upper arm using splint is a Commodity code that does not align with recent state and local procurement activity. The code nominally describes a single orthopedic supply item—a splint for upper-arm immobilization—yet the recent opportunities posted under this code span staffing for medically fragile students, virtual urgent care, dialysis services, laboratory testing, occupational health examinations, phlebotomy, drug screening, and billing services. These activities fall outside the scope of splint procurement or orthopedic supply chains, and none represent direct procurement of the product the code names.

State and local bodies issuing opportunities tagged to this code include school districts (Hillsborough County Public Schools), health plans (Inland Empire Health Plan), county corrections departments (Escambia County Corrections), county health systems (Santa Clara Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, Harris County, Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs), state health agencies (Illinois Department of Human Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Nevada Purchasing Division), city governments (City of Austin, City of Tucson, Monroe County, Rockland County), and transit authorities (Dallas Area Rapid Transit). Geographic spread spans Florida, California, Texas, Illinois, Colorado, Washington, Michigan, Kentucky, Georgia, New York, and Nevada. The absence of coherent recent procurement activity under this code—either for splints specifically or for the orthopedic supplies category more broadly—signals that the code may be unused or misclassified in current state and local procurement databases. No representative opportunity for arm immobilization splints or related orthopedic supplies appears in the source material.
