W09: Fall involving playground equipment
The group of conditions classified under the title "Fall involving playground equipment" generally pertains to accidents and injuries that occur during playground activities. These incidents might entail falls from, out of, or onto playground equipment. The injuries sustained can differ widely in severity, ranging from minor bumps, bruises, and scrapes to more serious conditions including fractures, sprains, concussions, and dislocations. Causes often include improper use of playground equipment, lack of supervision, surface hazards, or defects in the equipment. Symptoms depend on the nature of the injury, but may involve pain, bruising, swelling, decreased range of motion, or loss of consciousness. Notable, these conditions solely involve physical injuries and do not involve disease transmission or disease progression.
