Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

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 (2011) and this edition and an alphabetical index are provided in order to facilitate the
use of and to improve the accessibility of the classification.
This edition has 945 titles of which about 44 are new and 456 are changed, including minor editorial
and grammatical 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 International Standard has been revised to align it
with the terminology of the International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF).
Relation to the WHO Family of International Classifications
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 International Standard was stimulated.
This International Standard makes use of the terminology of the International Classification of
Functioning, Disability and Health (ICF, WHO, 2001). ICF 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
