The group of conditions categorized under "Contact with other powered hand tools and household machinery" relates to injuries sustained from the misuse or accidental contact with non-industrial machinery commonly found at home. These accidents usually occur when individuals are using devices such as drills, saws, lawnmowers, or other power tools. They may also take place during contact with moving parts of household machinery like washing machines, vacuum cleaners or food processors. The injuries sustained vary but often include non-fatal cuts, abrasions, bruises, burns, or more severe cases like fractures, dislocations, and even amputations. There may also be cases of foreign bodies entering the eyes or other soft tissues. Symptoms depend on the type and severity of injury and can range from pain, swelling, and bleeding to impairment of function in more severe cases. Depending on the nature of the accident, various body systems can be affected including the skin, musculoskeletal system, nervous system, and, in some cases, the vascular system.
