V70.9: Bus occupant injured in collision with pedestrian or animal : unspecified bus occupant injured in traffic accident

The ICD-10 V70.9 describes a medical condition that occurs when a bus occupant is involved in a collision with a pedestrian or an animal during a traffic accident. This is a traumatic event that can manifest in various ways depending on the circumstances of the accident and the individual's physical condition during the impact. The patient can suffer from a wide range of injuries, which may include but are not limited to cuts, abrasions, bruising, fractures, or even more severe injuries such as a concussion or internal damage. These injuries can involve any part of the body, however, the extent and severity of injuries commonly vary depending on factors such as the speed of the bus at the time of the accident, the size of the pedestrian or animal, and the occupant's position inside the bus. The impact of the collision might cause the patient to move abruptly, thereby suffering potential injuries from hitting hard surfaces inside the bus.
