V02: Pedestrian injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle
The group of conditions denoted as "Pedestrian injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle" predominantly refers to physical injuries that a pedestrian can sustain as a result of a collision with a vehicle like a motorcycle, bicycle or scooter. These injuries can significantly vary in nature and severity depending upon the specifics of the accident. There can range from minor abrasions, bruises, or sprains to more serious concerns such as bone fractures, traumatic brain injuries, internal bleeding, or spinal injuries. The type and extent of these injuries often depend on factors like the speed and size of the vehicle, the protective gear worn by the pedestrian, and the immediate medical response. Severe injuries may necessitate surgical intervention and long-term rehabilitation. It's also critical to know that aside from physical injuries, significant psychological distress may occur due to the traumatic nature of the event.
