Y35.199A
ICD-10-CMLegal intervention involving other explosives, unspecified person injured, initial encounter
This code signifies an injury sustained due to a legal intervention involving an explosive device other than a firearm, where the specific individual injured is not identified. This typically refers to situations where law enforcement or other authorized personnel use explosives in an official capacity, resulting in harm.
Apply this code when documentation indicates an injury occurred as a direct result of a legal intervention involving an unspecified explosive, and the patient's role (e.g., suspect, bystander) is not specified. This would include scenarios like injuries from a controlled detonation by bomb squads or tactical operations using explosive breaching devices.
