Medical Device Classification Catalogue Changes in March 2022

Medical device classification catalogue, the extensive list specifying risk classes for various product categories in China, has been updated twice in March 2022.

On March 24, 2022, the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) announced (No.25-2022) the changes for 10 medical device product categories. On March 30, 2022, the NMPA announced (No.30-2022) the changes for 27 medical device product categories.

Medical Device Classification Catalogue Changes – Highlights

The key changes to China’s medical device classification catalogue have been summarized by our regulatory experts as follows.

  • Non-sterile types of liquid and paste dressings will be upclassified as class II medical devices instead of class I.
  • The following neurological and cardiovascular surgical instrumentswill be down-classified from class III to class II:
    • Catheter sterilization connector
    • Arterial puncture needle
    • Catheter sheath
    • Dilator
    • Connection valve
    • Extension tube

Implementation Requirements for Radio Frequency Therapy Instruments and Radio Frequency Skin Treatment Instruments

The NMPA registration approval must be obtained for radio frequency therapy instruments and radio frequency skin treatment instruments from April 1, 2024, onwards. For already submitted applications but yet to be approved, the NMPA would review and audit according to the previous classification catalogue, however, the registration certificate would also indicate the product’s new classification is the remarks section.
