Introduction
Assistive products (including software) are classified according to their function. The classification
consists of three hierarchical levels and the codes each consist of three pairs of digits. Like other
classifications, for each level, codes, titles, explanatory notes, inclusions, exclusions and cross-references
are given. Besides the explanatory text and the classification itself, a table of conversion between the
previous edition (ISO 9999:2016) and this document (ISO 9999:2022) and an alphabetical index are
provided in order to facilitate the use of and to improve the accessibility of the classification.
This document has 948 titles of which about 23 are new and 116 are changed, including minor editorial
revisions.
All assistive products in this classification are primarily intended for use outside of health care settings;
however, some of the products can be used in facilities such as rehabilitation centres to teach clients
how to use these products. It should be noted that the titles of some subclasses and divisions in class 28
refer to the “workplace”. This term does not refer to a specific setting or geographical location; instead,
it refers to any setting in which employment-related activities or vocational training are performed.
The definition of “assistive product” used by this document has been revised to align it with the
terminology of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF, WHO, 2018).
In 2003, ISO 9999 was accepted as a related member of the WHO Family of International Classifications
(WHO-FIC). The WHO-FIC comprises high-quality classifications for relevant sectors of the health
system. With this inclusion, the use of this document was stimulated.
This document makes use of the terminology of the ICF, which is a classification of health and health-
related domains. These domains are classified from body, individual and societal perspectives by means
of two lists: a list of body functions and structure and a list of domains of activity and participation. Since
an individual's functioning and disability occurs in a context, ICF also includes a list of environmental
factors. Assistive products in this list are viewed as part of the environmental factors. The ICF is one of
the core classifications of the WHO-FIC (see Annex A).
An alphabetical index of terms in Annex D is provided for information to facilitate access to the
classification. Terms used in inclusion statements are incorporated in the index.
NOTE Some of the assistive products can be classified as medical devices.

4 Elements and rules used in classification
4.1 Principle
The classification is based on the function of the products being classified.
Assistive products that have a principal function other than training, but which can also be used for
training, are included in the class covering their primary function.
Software is classified according to its function.
Multifunctional products are also classified based on the primary function. References may be added
related to secondary functions of the item.
4.2 Construction
The classification consists of three hierarchical levels: classes, subclasses and divisions.
Each class, subclass or division consists of a code, a title and, if necessary, an explanatory note and
reference to other parts of the classification.
Explanatory notes are used to clarify the content of the class, subclass or division. Inclusions and
exclusions are used to provide examples.
References are used for two purposes:
— to separate classes, subclasses or divisions from one another;
— for information, e.g. references between related products.
In general, references are made to the lowest possible level.
4.3 Codes
4.3.1 The code consists of three pairs of digits.
The first pair of digits indicates a class, the second pair of digits a subclass and the third pair of digits a
division.
For practical reasons, in this document, the classes are indicated by one pair of digits only (deleting two
pairs of zeros) and subclasses are indicated by two pairs of digits (deleting one pair of zeros).
ISO 9999:2022(E)
The code determines the position of the class, the subclass or the division, respectively, in the
classification.
4.3.2 The digits for the codes were originally chosen with intervals of three. In subsequent revisions,
the intervening digits have been used to introduce new classes, subclasses and divisions without
significantly modifying the classification.
Codes that were originally used to classify items that have been removed from the classification are not
used to classify new items that have been added to the classification. As a consequence, the order of the
codes is no longer in all places in intervals of three and the divisions may not in all places follow a logic
order.
4.3.3 Classes 01, 02, and 90 to 99 and the associated subclasses and divisions are reserved for
national applications.
The subclasses XX 01, XX 02, and XX 90 to XX 99 and the associated divisions are reserved for national
applications.
The divisions XX XX 01, XX XX 02 and XX XX 90 to XX XX 99 are reserved for national applications.
Subclasses XX 88 and the divisions XX XX 88 are reserved for assistive products that are titled “Other
(title of parent class or parent subclass)” for international applications.
In addition, further levels, e.g. 4th level, may be added to any part of the classification to serve national
or local purposes
4.3.4 A conversion table detailing the coding changes from the previous edition (ISO 9999:2016) of
the classification to this document is given in Annex C.
4.4 Titles of classes, subclasses and divisions
4.4.1 The common language and framework of the ICF is used when appropriate, otherwise
terminology in general use has been adopted; titles of classes are harmonized with the ICF.
4.4.2 All titles in the classification are in the plural form.
4.4.3 Titles at class level generally describe a broad area of function of the product, e.g. assistive
products for domestic activities and participation in domestic life, assistive products for activities and
participation relating to personal mobility and transportation and assistive products for work activities
and participation in employment.
4.4.4 Titles at subclass level describe a special function, e.g. “assistive products for reading”, within
the broad area covered by the class, e.g. “assistive products for communication and information
management”.
4.4.5 Going down to the division level, the description gets more specific.
4.4.6 Only in cases where an assistive product is intended for use by persons with a specific disability,
age or gender should the title refer to that group.
4.5 Rules used in classification
4.5.1 A class is equal to the sum of its subclasses and a subclass is equal to the sum of its divisions.
ISO 9999:2022(E)
4.5.2 In general, parts of assistive products, accessories to assistive products, individually adapted
assistive products and individual adaptations in homes and other premises are classified in the same
subclass or division of the assistive product with which they are associated.
4.5.3 Parts, accessories and adaptations are separately classified when they are associated with
a group of assistive products. In these cases, they are classified as close as possible to the group of
assistive products with which they are associated, e.g. 12 07 accessories for assistive products for
walking.
4.5.4 The classification is organized in such a manner that all assistive products can be classified
without being tested or measured.
4.5.5 Classification of hypothetical assistive products is avoided.
4.5.6 Classes are created in such a manner that they do not overlap in the described broad function
of other classes. The subclasses are created in such a manner that they do not overlap in the specific
function of other subclasses. The divisions are created in such a manner that they do not overlap with
products in other divisions.
