V63.1: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van : passenger injured in nontraffic accident

The ICD-10 code V63.1 describes a specific scenario where an individual, who is a passenger in a heavy transport vehicle, gets injured in a collision with a car, pick-up truck, or van during a non-traffic accident. A non-traffic accident typically refers to any incident that does not occur on a public highway, such as in a parking lot, driveway, or private property. Heavy transport vehicles are larger vehicles designed to carry heavy loads, such as trucks or lorries. The injuries sustained in this condition can vary greatly depending on the severity of the collision, ranging from minor bruises and scrapes to potentially severe and life-threatening injuries like fractures, head injuries, or internal organ damage. The exact symptoms would depend on the specific injury type and its severity. It is important for passengers injured in such accidents to receive immediate medical attention to accurately assess and treat their injuries.
