V36.4: Occupant of three-wheeled motor vehicle injured in collision with other nonmotor vehicle : person injured while boarding or alighting
The medical incident under the ICD-10 code V36.4 refers to a specific type of vehicular accident wherein an occupant of a three-wheeled motor vehicle is injured following a collision with another non-motor vehicle. The occupant's injury specifically occurs during the act of boarding or alighting from the vehicle. The injuries from this type of incident can range from minor abrasions and contusions, to more serious conditions like fractures, sprains, concussions or even internal bleeding, depending on the severity of the collision. The affected systems in the body would essentially be determined by the type and location of the injury incurred. As with any accident, there's also the potential for emotional and psychological trauma. Since the incident is borne out of accidental circumstances, the progression of such conditions greatly depends on the immediate medical attention received by the injured individual.
