Generation of identification details for a Legacy Device when a UDI-DI already exists

When the manufacturer already has a UDI-DI assigned to a Legacy Device, the manufacturer will be able to use it as a device identifier for the Legacy Device. In this case, the EUDAMED DI is automatically generated from the UDI-DI value.

The Legacy Device will therefore have the following identification elements: a EUDAMED DI (equivalent of the Basic UDI-DI and generated based on the UDI-DI) and a UDI-DI (provided by the manufacturer).

In order to generate the EUDAMED DI identification element from the UDI-DI provided, EUDAMED will use a standard format, placing the characters B- in front of the UDI-DI.

UDI-DI: M991CVS12130NES2

Generated EUDAMED DI: B-M991CVS12130NES2
