V15.0: Pedal cyclist injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle : driver injured in nontraffic accident
The condition described as "Pedal cyclist injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle: driver injured in nontraffic accident" refers to a specific physical trauma or injury sustained by a pedal cyclist. In this scenario, the cyclist, while operating their bicycle, has had a nontraffic accident involving a collision with a railway train or railway vehicle. This injury can range from mild to severe, depending on the impact. Typically, the evolution of the trauma depends on the severity of the accident, ranging from minor scrapes and bruises to serious bone fractures, internal damage, or head injuries. Various body systems can be affected by such an accident, including the musculoskeletal system, integumentary system (skin, nails, hair, and sweat glands), and potentially the nervous system, if there is a head injury. Characteristic symptoms might include pain, swelling, bruising, bleeding, loss of function in a body part, and in severe cases, loss of consciousness or confusion. The condition is a direct result of the accident and doesn't arise spontaneously or transmitted from person to person.
