Pedestrian on other standing micro-mobility pedestrian conveyance injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle, unspecified whether traffic or nontraffic accident
ICD-10 V05.938 is a billable code used to indicate a diagnosis of pedestrian on other standing micro-mobility pedestrian conveyance injured in collision with railway train or railway vehicle, unspecified whether traffic or nontraffic accident.
This code is used to classify injuries sustained by pedestrians using micro-mobility conveyances, such as scooters or bicycles, that are stationary at the time of a collision with a railway train or vehicle. The code is particularly relevant in urban settings where micro-mobility options are prevalent. It captures incidents where the pedestrian is not in motion, which can complicate the determination of whether the accident is classified as traffic or nontraffic. Accurate coding requires detailed documentation of the circumstances surrounding the incident, including the type of conveyance involved, the location of the accident, and the nature of the injuries sustained. This code is essential for public health data collection and analysis, as it helps identify trends in pedestrian safety and the impact of micro-mobility on urban transportation dynamics.
Emergency department notes should clearly describe the mechanism of injury, type of conveyance, and any relevant witness statements.
Patients presenting with injuries from collisions while using scooters or bicycles that were stationary at the time of impact.
Consider the need for additional codes to capture specific injuries sustained during the incident.
Trauma documentation must include detailed descriptions of the injuries, mechanism of injury, and any surgical interventions performed.
Trauma cases involving significant injuries from railway collisions, requiring surgical intervention.
Ensure that all injuries are documented and coded accurately to reflect the full extent of trauma.
Used when a patient presents to the emergency department with injuries from a collision.
Document the nature of the injuries and the circumstances of the accident.
Emergency medicine specialists should ensure that all relevant details are captured.
Documentation should include the type of micro-mobility conveyance, the circumstances of the collision, and any relevant details about the patient's injuries and treatment.
