V85: Occupant of special construction vehicle injured in transport accident
The group of conditions under the title "Occupant of special construction vehicle injured in transport accident" refers to injuries sustained by individuals who were occupants of special construction vehicles at the time of a transport accident. Such accidents could involve heavy equipment like cranes, bulldozers, or excavators, or even smaller equipment like forklifts. The resulting injuries can vary widely, from minor cuts and bruises to more serious complications like fractures, internal injuries, or traumatic brain injuries. The severity and type of injuries depend on factors such as the nature of the accident, the speed at which it occurred, and whether the occupant was using safety equipment. Symptoms can include pain, swelling, bleeding, reduced mobility, loss of consciousness, or any other unusual physical or mental changes. The progression of these conditions strongly depends on the immediate response after the accident, the severity of the injuries, and individual health factors.
