How N02 is structured

28
terminal codes, selectable in a device record
6
branch headings, not selectable
17
name a specific device type
39%
fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Spinal Medullar System 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 28 codes marked terminal.

7 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 4 are “- Accessories” entries, 39% 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 N0280 (Spinal Medullary System Devices - Accessories), holding 12 of the 28 terminal codes.

Frequently asked questions

Which N02 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
