W16.832A
ICD-10-CMJumping or diving into other water striking wall causing other injury, initial encounter
This code describes an injury sustained when an individual jumps or dives into a body of water and impacts a wall, resulting in a type of injury not specifically classified elsewhere. This typically involves blunt force trauma from striking a hard surface within the aquatic environment.
Apply this code when documentation clearly indicates a patient was injured after jumping or diving into water and subsequently striking a wall, and the specific injury (e.g., fracture, sprain, contusion) is coded separately. This code serves as an external cause of morbidity, providing context for the primary injury.
