V63.7: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in collision with car, pick-up truck or van : person on outside of vehicle injured in traffic accident

ICD-10 code V63.7 pertains to a very specific type of non-fatal injury, which involves an individual who, while not inside, but rather outside a heavy transport vehicle, sustains injuries due to a collision with another vehicle such as a car, pick-up truck, or van. This type of trauma situation typically appears in traffic accidents. The severity and nature of injuries may vary widely depending on multiple factors such as speed of collision, safety measures taken, and the type of impact. The injuries can range from minor cuts and bruises to major fractures, internal injuries, or head and spinal cord injuries, possibly leading to long-term disability. The individual may experience symptoms such as pain, bleeding, loss of consciousness, or difficulty breathing, all requiring immediate medical attention.
