How A03 is structured

31
terminal codes, selectable in a device record
9
branch headings, not selectable
21
name a specific device type
32%
fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Tubular Devices branch runs 3 levels deep. 9 entries below are branch headings that group other codes rather than naming a device, so a classification has to resolve all the way down to one of the 31 codes marked terminal.

9 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 1 is an “- Accessories” entry, 32% of the branch. An “- Other” code is the residual slot for devices its siblings do not name, so it is worth ruling out every specific sibling before settling on one.

The largest sub-branch is A0301 (Flow Controllers), holding 15 of the 31 terminal codes.

Frequently asked questions

Which A03 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
31 of the 40 codes listed under A03 (Tubular Devices) are terminal and can be selected. The other 9 are branch headings that cannot.
How deep is the A03 hierarchy?
The A03 branch runs 3 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is A0301 (Flow Controllers), which holds 15 of the 31 terminal codes.
How many A03 codes are catch-all entries?
9 terminal codes under A03 are "- Other" entries and 1 is an "- Accessories" entry, 32% of the branch. The remaining 21 name a specific device type.
