This classification denotes the group of activities that yields a placement intervention or procedure to removal of intermittent pressure device on right upper arm. This placement 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 2W5AX7Z

UNSPSC 85801820 Removal of intermittent pressure device on right upper arm is a Commodity code that sees little relevant recent state and local procurement activity aligned with its nominal scope. Of the recent opportunities tagged with this code, the medical and clinical testing services solicited bear no clear connection to the specific medical procedure the code describes. State and local governments do not appear to be procuring removal of intermittent pressure devices under this taxonomy; instead, the code's recent activity reflects a data-classification mismatch where soliciting bodies have tagged clinical laboratory testing, occupational health examinations, drug screening, and postmortem analysis services with a code meant to denote a narrowly defined medical device removal procedure.

The opportunities posted under this code from July through April 2026 span the full breadth of state and local procurement bodies—state health departments (Illinois Department of Human Services, Texas Health and Human Services Commission, Nevada Purchasing Division, Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs, Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, Colorado Department of Human Services), county health offices (Harris County Public Health Services, Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners, Brevard County), cities and school districts (Austin Independent School District, Northside Independent School District, Austin Energy), and specialty districts (Oregon State Police, District of Columbia Office of the Chief Medical Examiner)—but the work actually being purchased is clinical laboratory testing, occupational health screening, drug and alcohol testing, phlebotomy services, and related diagnostic services. Representative recent solicitations include the Illinois Department of Human Services' IFB for laboratory services at 14 mental health and developmental disability facilities statewide (due August 4, 2026), the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's IFB for EPA-accredited lead sample analysis (due July 31, 2026), multiple Kentucky Department of Veterans Affairs RFPs for medical laboratory services at long-term care veterans centers, the Colorado Department of Human Services' RFP for clinical STAT laboratory and diagnostic testing (due May 5, 2026), and the Austin Independent School District's RFP for employment physicals and drug and alcohol testing services (due May 5, 2026). These solicitations originate predominantly in Texas, Kentucky, Florida, Georgia, and other southeastern and midwestern states where recent laboratory and occupational health contracting activity concentrates. The code does not reflect a live procurement category aligned with its stated definition; vendors pursuing state and local laboratory and occupational health services should verify the correct UNSPSC classification before bidding, as this code's actual recent usage does not track the procedure it nominally describes.
