Ped on rolr-skt injured in clsn w pedl cyc, unsp, sequela

This code describes a long-term consequence or complication arising from an injury sustained by a pedestrian on roller-skates who was involved in a collision with a pedal cycle. The original accident's location (traffic or nontraffic) was not specified in the documentation.

Use this code when documenting a sequela, such as chronic pain, scar tissue, or a permanent disability, that is directly attributable to an injury from a past incident where a roller-skating pedestrian collided with a bicycle. This code is appropriate when the initial injury has healed, but its lasting effects are being treated.

• Always assign a sequela code as a secondary diagnosis, with the primary diagnosis describing the nature of the sequela (e.g., chronic pain, malunion).
• Ensure documentation clearly links the current condition to the original roller-skate/bicycle collision.
• The "S" in the 7th character indicates a sequela; do not use this code for the initial encounter or subsequent routine care of the acute injury.
