ACQUISITION OF AORTIC BIOLOGICAL VALVE NO. 21 MM

This tender concerns the acquisition of a specific medical device: an aortic biological valve with a size of 21 millimeters. The contracting entity responsible for this procurement process is the Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo, a prominent healthcare institution located in Lima, Peru. The tender is identified by the reference number AMC-CLASICO-52-2015-HNDM-1. The procurement method employed for this acquisition is 'Adjudicación de Menor Cuantía,' which translates to 'Award of Minor Amount' or 'Small Value Procurement.' This method is typically used for procurements below a certain financial threshold, suggesting that the estimated value of this valve acquisition is relatively modest. The Hospital Nacional Dos de Mayo, as a national hospital, likely requires this valve for cardiac surgery procedures to replace or repair a diseased aortic valve. The specification of 'biological valve' indicates that the device is made from animal tissue (such as porcine or bovine pericardium), as opposed to mechanical valves. This choice often depends on patient factors, such as age and lifestyle, with biological valves generally being preferred for older patients or those who cannot tolerate anticoagulation therapy. The tender process will likely involve evaluating bids from qualified suppliers to ensure the provision of a high-quality, safe, and effective aortic biological valve that meets the hospital's clinical standards and patient needs. Further details regarding technical specifications, delivery timelines, and evaluation criteria would be available in the full tender documentation.

This is a supplies contract in the governance and public administration sector. Located in Peru, Latin America, this opportunity is open to firms and consortiums, with an estimated budget of PEN 39,992.
