V74.2: Bus occupant injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus : person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident
Bus occupant injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus: person on outside of vehicle injured in nontraffic accident refers to a specific type of traumatic injury. This condition generally occurs when a person, who is not inside a vehicle, gets hurt due to a nontraffic mishap involving a collision between a bus and a heavy transport vehicle or another bus. As a result, the individual experiences varying degrees of physical trauma depending on the impact of the accident. Injuries can range from minor cuts, bruises and fractures, to more severe wounds such as internal bleeding, spinal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries. Immediate aftermath can include shock, loss of consciousness, pain, and confusion. Long-term effects, depending on the injury severity, can include chronic pain, disability, or psychological trauma. This specific circumstance of injury does not suggest or cover the detailed extent of trauma, making it critical to seek an in-depth medical evaluation following such an incident.
