V70-V79: Bus occupant injured in transport accident
V70: Bus occupant injured in collision with pedestrian or animal
The group of conditions described by "Bus occupant injured in collision with pedestrian or animal" represents a spectrum of health impacts sustained during a vehicular accident. In these scenarios, individuals present on a bus are involved in a collision with either pedestrians or an animal. The severity and type of injury vary greatly, depending on factors such as speed at the time of impact, safety measures, individual health status, and the nature of the other entity involved in the collision. Injuries may range from minor bruises and lacerations to serious head injuries, fractures, or internal organ damage. Trauma primarily affects the musculoskeletal system but may extend to neurological, digestive, respiratory, and circulatory systems. These conditions don't spread from person to person and are directly linked to the traumatic incident on the bus. Symptoms can emerge immediately post-accident or over a period of hours to days, including physical pain, nausea, dizziness, breathing difficulties, and impaired consciousness or cognitive function. These conditions require immediate medical intervention.
