V60-V69: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in transport accident
V61: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle
The group of conditions delineated under the heading "Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with pedal cycle" generally involves injuries resulting from traffic accidents where a heavy vehicle such as a truck or bus has been in a collision with a cycle. The injuries can range from minor cuts, bruises and fractures, to more serious conditions such as head injuries, internal injuries, spinal injuries or limb amputations. The affected systems can vary widely depending on the nature and severity of the collision, including but not limited to musculoskeletal, neurological, cardiovascular, integumentary (skin) and the respiratory systems. The onset of symptoms is mostly immediate, though some may present later as the disease progresses. For instance, an individual might experience increased pain, difficulty moving or swelling after a few days post-accident. It's noteworthy that injuries can affect both the physical health and mental well-being of the individual involved in the accident.
