Pedestrian on standing micro-mobility pedestrian conveyance injured in collision with pedal cycle, unspecified whether traffic or nontraffic accident
ICD-10 V01.93 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of pedestrian on standing micro-mobility pedestrian conveyance injured in collision with pedal cycle, unspecified whether traffic or nontraffic accident.
V01.93 is used to classify injuries sustained by pedestrians who are using standing micro-mobility devices, such as e-scooters or standing bicycles, when they collide with a pedal cycle. This code is particularly relevant in urban settings where the use of micro-mobility devices is increasing. The collision can occur in various environments, including streets, bike lanes, or pedestrian pathways, and the specifics of whether the incident occurred in a traffic or nontraffic context are not specified. Accurate coding of this incident is crucial for understanding the epidemiology of injuries related to micro-mobility devices and for developing public health strategies aimed at reducing such incidents. Documentation should include details about the circumstances of the collision, the type of micro-mobility device involved, and the nature of the injuries sustained.
Emergency departments must document the mechanism of injury, type of conveyance, and specific injuries sustained. Clear notes on the circumstances surrounding the accident are essential.
Patients presenting with fractures, lacerations, or contusions after being struck by a bicycle while using a standing micro-mobility device.
Emergency physicians should ensure that all relevant details are captured to support accurate coding and billing.
Trauma surgeons need comprehensive documentation of the injury patterns and mechanisms, including the type of micro-mobility device and the nature of the collision.
Trauma cases involving significant injuries from collisions with bicycles, requiring surgical intervention.
Attention to detail in documenting the mechanism of injury is critical for accurate coding and potential research implications.
Used when a patient presents with injuries from a collision involving a micro-mobility device.
Documentation must reflect the nature of the visit and the injuries sustained.
Emergency medicine specialists should ensure that the visit level accurately reflects the complexity of the case.
Document the type of micro-mobility device involved, the circumstances of the collision, the nature of the injuries sustained, and whether the incident occurred in a traffic or nontraffic setting.
