V74.9: Bus occupant injured in collision with heavy transport vehicle or bus : unspecified bus occupant injured in traffic accident
The ICD-10 code V74.9 pertains to injuries sustained by an unspecified bus occupant involved in a collision with a heavy transport vehicle or another bus while traveling. Such injuries typically come about due to the impact force of the collision, and the severity can widely vary depending on factors such as the speed at which the accident occurred, whether the occupant was wearing a safety restraint, and the angle of the collision. Symptoms can include but aren't limited to aches, wounds, fractures, dislocations, and concussions. Some occupants might experience delayed symptoms or hidden injuries that can manifest later. The injuries can affect various systems of the body, including the skeletal, nervous, and musculoskeletal systems, and they can lead to dysfunction or impairment if not promptly and properly treated.
