EMDN K01: Endotherapy Devices

Complete hierarchy for EMDN group K01 in category K (Endotherapy and Electrosurgical Devices): 45 terminal codes, EMDN v2026. Terminal codes are the ones accepted in a EUDAMED device record.

Registered classes, as of 8 Sep 2026. For each code with at least 20 registrations under a legislation, the chip shows how devices registered in EUDAMED under that code are classed, counted once per primary UDI-DI and kept separate for each legislation. It is not a determination. The class of a device comes from the MDR and IVDR classification rules for its intended purpose. MDD and IVDD classes are the directive classification and can differ from the class the same device would have under MDR or IVDR.

      • 16 Class IIb (15.0%)

      Registered in EUDAMED under MDD with this code: 24 of 25 devices carry Class IIa on their registration (as of 8 Sep 2026).

      • 24 Class IIa (96.0%)
      • 1 Class IIb (4.0%)

      Counted once per primary UDI-DI, using the class on the registration. The class of a device comes from the MDR and IVDR classification rules for its intended purpose, so a code is evidence of how others registered, not a determination. MDD and IVDD classes are the directive classification and can differ under MDR or IVDR.

How K01 is structured

45
terminal codes, selectable in a device record
6
branch headings, not selectable
38
name a specific device type
16%
fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Endotherapy Devices branch runs 3 levels deep. 6 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 45 codes marked terminal.

5 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 2 are “- Accessories” entries, 16% 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 K0102 (Minimally Invasive and Robotic Surgery Instruments, Single-Use), holding 26 of the 45 terminal codes.

Frequently asked questions

Which K01 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
45 of the 51 codes listed under K01 (Endotherapy Devices) are terminal and can be selected. The other 6 are branch headings that cannot.
How deep is the K01 hierarchy?
The K01 branch runs 3 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is K0102 (Minimally Invasive and Robotic Surgery Instruments, Single-Use), which holds 26 of the 45 terminal codes.
How many K01 codes are catch-all entries?
5 terminal codes under K01 are "- Other" entries and 2 are "- Accessories" entries, 16% of the branch. The remaining 38 name a specific device type.

Not sure which level to stop at, or which of two plausible codes to submit? The guide to choosing an EMDN code walks the decision level by level, with a worked example and the mistakes that get a EUDAMED registration rejected.
