V17.1XXA
ICD-10-CMPedal cycle passenger injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in nontraffic accident, initial encounter
This code describes an injury sustained by an individual who was a passenger on a bicycle, tricycle, or similar pedal-powered vehicle, when that vehicle collided with an immovable object (e.g., a tree, pole, building) in a non-roadway setting. The injury is a direct result of this specific type of impact, and it signifies the initial treatment or encounter for this condition.
Apply this code when documenting injuries to a passenger on a pedal cycle involved in an accident with a stationary object, such as a child riding on a parent's bicycle seat who is injured when the bicycle hits a fence in a park. This code is appropriate for the initial visit to an emergency department, urgent care, or physician's office for evaluation and treatment of the resulting trauma.
