V83: Occupant of special vehicle mainly used on industrial premises injured in transport accident
V83.1: Passenger of special industrial vehicle injured in traffic accident
The ICD-10 code V83.1 refers to a passenger of a special industrial vehicle injured in a traffic accident. This involves the person who is a passenger in a vehicle designed for specific industrial use, such as a forklift or a digger. The injury occurs as a result of a incident involving traffic, which could include a collision with another vehicle, a pedestrian, or a stationary object. This doesn't relate to the health conditions of the passenger prior to the accident, but rather to the injuries sustained during the accident. The severity and nature of the injuries can vary widely, from minor cuts and bruises to serious situations involving broken bones, internal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries.
