How U09 is structured

15
terminal codes, selectable in a device record
6
branch headings, not selectable
10
name a specific device type
33%
fallback entries: Other and Accessories

The Urogenital Endoscopic Devices branch runs 4 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 15 codes marked terminal.

5 terminal codes are “- Other” entries, 33% 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 U0903 (Single-Use Instruments for Urogenital Endoscopy), holding 6 of the 15 terminal codes.

Frequently asked questions

Which U09 codes can be used in a EUDAMED device record?
15 of the 21 codes listed under U09 (Urogenital Endoscopic Devices) are terminal and can be selected. The other 6 are branch headings that cannot.
How deep is the U09 hierarchy?
The U09 branch runs 4 levels below the group code. Its largest sub-branch is U0903 (Single-Use Instruments for Urogenital Endoscopy), which holds 6 of the 15 terminal codes.
How many U09 codes are catch-all entries?
5 terminal codes under U09 are "- Other" entries, 33% of the branch. The remaining 10 name a specific device type.
