Fall from other gliding-type pedestrian conveyance, sequela

This code signifies a health condition or complication arising as a direct result of an injury sustained from a fall off a non-motorized, gliding-type pedestrian conveyance other than a skateboard or scooter. This could include long-term pain, functional limitations, or other chronic issues stemming from the original incident.

Apply this code when documenting a patient presenting with a sequela (e.g., chronic pain, nerve damage, joint instability, scar contracture) that is definitively linked to a past fall from devices like hoverboards, roller skates, or inline skates. This code is appropriate for encounters where the initial injury has healed, but its lasting effects are being addressed.

• Always sequence this sequela code after the code for the specific nature of the sequela (e.g., chronic pain, fracture nonunion).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to a past fall from an "other gliding-type pedestrian conveyance."
• Do not use for acute injuries; this code is exclusively for the late effects or complications of a past injury.
