V71.2: Bus occupant injured in collision with pedal cycle : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident
The condition described by ICD-10 code V71.2 refers to injuries sustained by a bus occupant in a nontraffic accident involving a collision with a pedal cycle. In this case, the occupant was situated outside the vehicle when the incident occurred. Injuries could range from minor cuts and bruises to fractures, depending on the severity of the collision. Symptoms are usually immediate, noticeable, and may include pain, discomfort, swelling, lacerations, and inability to move certain body parts. The progression of the condition depends on the type and severity of the injury, and multiple systems of the body may be affected, such as the musculoskeletal system, nervous system, and skin. This condition is specific to the unique circumstance of the accident and is not transmissible. The condition is diagnosed based on the narrative of the incident, observation of symptoms, and additional diagnostic tests as needed, such as X-rays or scans.
