V53.1: Occupant of pick-up truck or van injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van : passenger injured in nontraffic accident
The medical condition represented by the ICD-10 code V53.1 refers to an injury sustained by a passenger in a pick-up truck or van during a collision with either a car, another pick-up truck, or van, that occurred outside of traffic. Essentially, this denotes a vehicular accident that may have taken place in a driveway, parking lot, or any non-traffic area. The wide array of potential injuries depend largely on the severity and type of accident. However, they often include trauma injuries such as fractures, cuts, or bruising that are commonly seen in passengers involved in vehicular accidents. Symptoms can range from pain and swelling to decreased mobility. The condition does not follow a standard disease progression, and the healing process will depend on the types of injuries sustained.
