V77: Bus occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object
V77.3: Bus occupant injured in collision with fixed or stationary object : unspecified bus occupant injured in nontraffic accident
The ICD-10 V77.3 code refers to a bus occupant who has been injured in a collision with a fixed or stationary object during a nontraffic accident. This could potentially include situations such as a bus crashing into a pole, building or any other motionless structure. The occupant could be a driver or a passenger. The severity, location, and type of injury can greatly vary depending on the specifics of the accident, such as the speed of the bus at the time of collision, the occupant's location within the bus, and whether safety measures like seat belts were used. Common injuries in such accidents might include fractures, concussions, whiplash and soft tissue injuries. As the bus accident occurred in a nontraffic setting, it might have happened in a parking lot, bus terminal, or other location away from public roads or highways.
