V09.2: Pedestrian injured in traffic accident involving other and unspecified motor vehicles
The medical condition denoted by ICD-10 code V09.2 refers to injuries that a pedestrian sustains in a traffic incident involving other unspecified motor vehicles. The pedestrian, in this case, is a non-occupant of a transport vehicle. These injuries can range in severity from minor cuts and bruises to debilitating traumas such as fractures, spinal cord injuries, or traumatic brain injury, depending on the impact of the collision. Besides visible physical injuries, the affected individual may also experience shock or psychological distress due to the incident. Since the context of the injury involves traffic accidents, injury occurrence is often sudden and immediate medical attention is typically required to address the sustained injuries. The condition impacts various body systems depending upon the specific nature and location of the injury.
