V93.4: Accident on board watercraft without accident to watercraft, not causing drowning and submersion : sailboat
The ICD-10 code V93.4 corresponds to accidents that occur on board of a sailboat without any accident to the watercraft itself, without causing drowning and submersion. Such an accident involves injuries that are sustained as a result of on-board activities or incidents, but do not result in the person falling into the water or the boat itself being damaged. For instance, this could be a collision between individuals on the sailboat, getting hit by boating equipment, or falling and hurting oneself within the confines of the boat. The overview of the accident does not include water-related injuries, drowning, or injuries sustained while swimming or being submerged underwater. The range of injuries could possibly vary from mild cuts and bruises to serious traumas depending on the specific incident and circumstances.
