V04: Pedestrian injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus

The conditions in the V04 group refer to physical injuries incurred by a pedestrian involved in a collision with a heavy transport vehicle or a bus. These injuries can vary considerably in severity depending on numerous factors such as the speed of the vehicle, the impact angle, and if protective measures were in place. Symptoms often linked with these injuries include pain, swelling, bruising, and visible wounds, although internal injuries could also exist which might initially be less evident. Progression of the condition can range from a speedy recovery to chronic health issues, largely contingent on addressing the injuries promptly and appropriately. Injuries may affect various systems of the body, like the musculoskeletal system in the case of broken bones or the nervous system if a traumatic brain injury occurs. Such incidents typically require immediate medical attention to assess, diagnose, and manage the injuries.
