V41.2: Car occupant injured in collision with pedal cycle : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident

The ICD-10 code V41.2 refers to a specific situation where a car occupant has been injured in a collision with a pedal cycle, and this injury occurred when the individual was situated outside the vehicle during a nontraffic incident. In this type of injury, a person who may be entering, exiting, or around the vehicle collides with a bicycle and consequently sustains wounds or harm. The exact nature and severity of injuries can vary widely, depending on factors like the speed of the bicycle, the type of contact, and the physical condition of the person involved. Common injuries might range from minor bruises and scrapes to more serious harm such as fractures, head injuries, or internal damage. After such an event, symptoms that may emerge could include pain, swelling, impaired mobility, or signs of severe trauma. Immediate medical attention is often needed for accurate diagnosis and proper management of the injury.
