V92.2: Water-transport-related drowning and submersion without accident to watercraft : fishing boat

V92.2 is a medical code describing a specific scenario of aquatic injury, particularly the drowning or submersion related to situations on a fishing boat where an accident to the watercraft did not occur. Drowning refers to respiratory impairment from being in or under a liquid, while submersion refers to the act of being under the liquid, in this case, water. Events under this category can occur without the boat capsizing or getting damaged and can involve scenarios such as a person falling overboard or getting swept by a strong wave. Common symptoms of drowning and submersion include difficulty breathing, coughing, chest pain, fatigue, and in severe cases, loss of consciousness and cardiac arrest. It progresses rapidly, and without quick rescue and resuscitation efforts, it could lead to serious complications, including death. The respiratory and cardiovascular systems are primarily affected in these events.
