V31: Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle
V31.9: Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle : unspecified occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in traffic accident
The ICD-10 code V31.9 indicates a condition where an unspecified occupant of a three-wheeled motor vehicle has been injured in a traffic collision with a pedal cycle. This could involve any type of three-wheeled motorized vehicle, such as a tricycle, trike, or auto rickshaw, and the specific occupant- whether the driver or the passenger, is not identified. In this type of accident, injuries can range from minor (like bruises or scrapes) to more severe ones, including bone fractures, internal organ damage, or head and spine injuries. The implication of 'traffic accident' indicates that the incident took place on a road or other public area usually used for transportation. The nature and severity of the injuries can greatly depend on the circumstances of the collision, such as speed, protective equipment use, and the physical health of the individual at the time of the accident.
