Impact:

• FJH9958 and FJH10023 are available to order through NHS Supply Chain. However, trusts are allocated a maximum daily quantity or “threshold” to ensure fair supply of available stock across the NHS.
• There are potential indirect alternatives for FJH9955 and FJH9958. These products are available to order through our online catalogue.
• FJH10023 does not currently have a suitable alternative due to its specific connection, hose type and size requirements.
• See our Downloads ▼ section to access the product listing for further information on the affected product codes and potential alternatives and for a full list of product codes subject to Protect Demand Management.
• The supply issue is anticipated to be resolved by 11 January 2027.
