Explosn of bomb place dur war op but expld aft, milt, init

This code signifies an injury sustained by military personnel due to an explosive device, specifically a bomb, that was planted during a period of war but detonated after the official end of hostilities. The injury is a direct result of this delayed explosion.

This code is appropriate for documenting initial encounters where military personnel present with injuries from unexploded ordnance (UXO) or improvised explosive devices (IEDs) that were remnants of a past conflict. It applies when the explosion occurred post-cessation of active war operations.

• Ensure the patient is identified as military personnel at the time of the injury.
• Verify that the explosion event occurred after the official end of the conflict.
• This code is for the initial encounter; subsequent encounters would use the appropriate seventh character.
