How L07 is structured
The Cardiovascular Surgery Instruments, Reusable branch runs 5 levels deep. 11 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 33 codes marked terminal.
10 terminal codes are “- Other” entries, 30% 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 L0708 (Vascular Surgery Instruments, Reusable), holding 25 of the 33 terminal codes.
Frequently asked questions
- Which L07 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
- 33 of the 44 codes listed under L07 (Cardiovascular Surgery Instruments, Reusable) are terminal and can be selected. The other 11 are branch headings that cannot.
- How deep is the L07 hierarchy?
- The L07 branch runs 5 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is L0708 (Vascular Surgery Instruments, Reusable), which holds 25 of the 33 terminal codes.
- How many L07 codes are catch-all entries?
- 10 terminal codes under L07 are "- Other" entries, 30% of the branch. The remaining 23 name a specific device type.
