V68: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in noncollision transport accident
V68.2: Occupant of heavy transport vehicle injured in noncollision transport accident : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident
The ICD-10 code V68.2 refers to a specific incident involving an individual who was occupying a heavy transport vehicle during a non-collision transport accident. This accident did not involve a collision with another vehicle. Additionally, the injured person was located on the outside of the vehicle when the incident occurred in a nontraffic area. The accident could have been caused by various circumstances such as a vehicle rollover, loss of control due to sudden braking or acceleration, or any unexpected conditions on the road or surrounding environment. Injuries may vary widely depending on the specifics of the accident, including potential damage to any body part from minor abrasions and fractures to major contusions or internal injuries. Since the person was on the outside of the vehicle, they may have been thrown off, causing further possible injury upon impact with the ground or other objects.
