V17.9XXA
ICD-10-CMUnspecified pedal cyclist injured in collision with fixed or stationary object in traffic accident, initial encounter
This code signifies an injury sustained by a bicyclist who collided with a non-moving object, such as a tree, pole, or parked car, within a traffic environment. The specific nature of the pedal cyclist (e.g., driver, passenger) is not documented, nor is the exact type of fixed or stationary object. This code is used for the initial treatment of such an injury.
Apply this code when a patient presents with injuries resulting from a bicycle accident where they struck an unmoving object on a public road or thoroughfare. This is appropriate when the medical record lacks specific details about the cyclist's role or the precise object involved, and it is the first time the patient is being treated for this particular injury.
