EMDN L14: ENT Instruments, Reusable

Complete hierarchy for EMDN group L14 in category L (Reusable Surgical Instruments): 50 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.

How L14 is structured

terminal codes, selectable in a device record

branch headings, not selectable

name a specific device type

18%

fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The ENT Instruments, Reusable branch runs 3 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 50 codes marked terminal.

9 terminal codes are “- Other” entries, 18% 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 L1490 (ENT Instruments, Reusable - Various), holding 14 of the 50 terminal codes.

Frequently asked questions

Which L14 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?: 50 of the 61 codes listed under L14 (ENT Instruments, Reusable) are terminal and can be selected. The other 11 are branch headings that cannot.
How deep is the L14 hierarchy?: The L14 branch runs 3 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is L1490 (ENT Instruments, Reusable - Various), which holds 14 of the 50 terminal codes.
How many L14 codes are catch-all entries?: 9 terminal codes under L14 are "- Other" entries, 18% of the branch. The remaining 41 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.
