V43.2: Car occupant injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident

The condition described by the ICD-10 code V43.2 involves an individual who, while outside of their car, pick-up truck, or van, suffers an injury due to a collision with any of these vehicles in a nontraffic accident. This typically indicates that the incident took place off public roads, such as a parking lot, driveway, or private property. The injuries sustained in such incidents can greatly vary in severity, depending on multiple factors (such as the speed of collision, and the positioning of the individual during the incident). The affected body regions and systems can range from superficial skin lacerations to severe internal organ or skeletal damage. Symptoms can include varying degrees of pain, visible physical trauma, possible loss of consciousness, or mobility issues depending on the injury's location and severity.
