V52.7: Occupant of pick-up truck or van injured in collision with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicle : person on outside of vehicle injured in traffic accident
The ICD-10 code V52.7 refers to injuries incurred by occupants of pick-up trucks or vans in collisions with two- or three-wheeled motor vehicles where the person is injured while being on the external part of the vehicle during a traffic accident. These injuries often involve significant physical trauma due to the impact of the collision and the individual's vulnerable position outside the vehicle. The severity and nature of the injuries can vary widely, ranging from minor cuts or bruises to more serious conditions such as fractures, internal organ injuries, or traumatic brain injuries. Symptoms can also differ significantly depending on the specific injuries sustained. This condition can progress quickly, requiring immediate medical attention for diagnosis and treatment. Remember, always follow vehicle safety guidelines to prevent such accidents.
