- Things that go entirely within, or from outside to inside the body are considered to be internal devices.
- The device may be diagnostic or therapeutic.
- This includes electrodes, catheters, ventricular assist devices, feeding tube, ventricular drain or shunt, joint replacement devices (e.g. total hip)

Removals are not coded
We are only coding insertion/implantation of these devices, NOT their removal or subsequent management.
