V47.2: Car occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident
The medical condition described under ICD-10 code V47.2 relates to injuries sustained by a car occupant during a collision with a fixed or stationary object, where the accident occurs outside of the usual traffic area. In this scenario, the person injured is not necessarily amidst traffic, they could be in a parking lot or similar non-traffic environment when the accident took place. Injuries for this category can vary widely depending upon the nature of the collision and can include anything from minor bruises and lacerations to more severe conditions like concussions, fractures, and internal injuries. Each incident's specific circumstances will largely influence the resulting injury's type, location, and severity. Therefore, the medical care required will depend on the unique details of each case and the extent of the injuries caused by the accident.
