A61M 60/438

the force acting on the blood contacting member being mechanical

Introduced: January 2021

Full Title

Full titles differ between systems:

IPC:

Blood pumps; Devices for mechanical circulatory actuation; Balloon pumps for circulatory assistance > Details relating to driving > for positive displacement blood pumps > the force acting on the blood contacting member being mechanical

CPC:

Blood pumps; Devices for mechanical circulatory actuation; Balloon pumps for circulatory assistance (heart stimulation A61H31/00; heart stimulators for electrotherapy A61N1/362) > Details relating to driving > for positive displacement blood pumps > the force acting on the blood contacting member being mechanical

IPC and CPC are identically structured here. All 4 subcodes exist in both systems.

IPC defines codes here since 2021.
