V98-V99: Other and unspecified transport accidents
The range V98-V99 from the ICD-10 WHO 2016 classification comprises 'Other and unspecified transport accidents'. These are incidents related to transportation that can't be categorized within other specific forms of transport accidents. These accidents could be associated with unconventional means of transport such as horse-drawn vehicles, animal rides or even conveyances that are person-powered like skateboards, skis or wheelchairs. The range also includes accidents where the mode of transportation wasn't specified. Injuries can vary depending on the severity and nature of the accident, but can include anything from minor cuts or sprains to serious head trauma, broken bones, internal damage or even life-threatening injuries. The progression of these conditions can also greatly differ, subject to the extent of instantaneous damage, and the potential for resulting complications such as infections, chronic pain or mobility issues.
