V57.3 pertains to injuries sustained by the occupant of a pick-up truck or van in a collision with a fixed or stationary object during a nontraffic accident. These incidents occur when the vehicle, for various reasons, crashes into an immovable object like a tree, wall, or lamppost outside of traffic. The collision may result in various types of injuries depending on factors like the force of impact and whether safety measures like seatbelts were in use. Trauma may occur to any part of the body, commonly the head, neck, or chest. Symptoms can widely range from minor abrasions, lacerations, or fractures to serious conditions like traumatic brain injury or internal bleeding. It is important to note that sometimes, symptoms may not become apparent immediately after the accident, but can emerge within a few hours or days following the incident. Therefore, prompt medical evaluation is suggested.
