V20-V29: Motorcycle rider injured in transport accident
V24: Motorcycle rider injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus
The group of conditions represented by the V24 ICD-10 code refer to injuries sustained by a motorcycle rider in a collision with a heavy transport vehicle or bus. These incidences typically involve high-impact trauma due to the considerable size and weight difference between the motorcycle and the larger vehicle. Injuries can range from minor to severe and are often multisystem, affecting multiple parts of the body at once. Commonly seen injuries include fractures, internal bleeding, brain injuries, and damage to vital organs. Symptoms depend on the specific injuries sustained and can present as pain, swelling, visible deformities, confusion, or loss of consciousness. The progression of these conditions can vary significantly based on the severity of the injuries. These injuries are largely unpredictable and are caused by accidents involving the said vehicles.
