How P09 is structured

208
terminal codes, selectable in a device record
81
branch headings, not selectable
167
name a specific device type
20%
fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Orthopaedic Prostheses, Osteosynthesis Devices, Devices for Tendon and Ligament Synthesis branch runs 5 levels deep. 81 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 208 codes marked terminal.

35 terminal codes are “- Other” entries and 6 are “- Accessories” entries, 20% 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 P0908 (Hip Prostheses), holding 58 of the 208 terminal codes.

Frequently asked questions

Which P09 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
208 of the 289 codes listed under P09 (Orthopaedic Prostheses, Osteosynthesis Devices, Devices for Tendon and Ligament Synthesis) are terminal and can be selected. The other 81 are branch headings that cannot.
How deep is the P09 hierarchy?
The P09 branch runs 5 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is P0908 (Hip Prostheses), which holds 58 of the 208 terminal codes.
How many P09 codes are catch-all entries?
35 terminal codes under P09 are "- Other" entries and 6 are "- Accessories" entries, 20% of the branch. The remaining 167 name a specific device type.
