Activity, obstacle course

This code identifies an injury or health condition that occurred while an individual was participating in an obstacle course activity. This includes structured events, training, or recreational use of obstacle course facilities. The code specifies the activity as the external cause of the injury.

Assign this code as a secondary external cause code when documenting an injury sustained during activities such as mud runs, ninja warrior courses, military-style obstacle training, or playground obstacle structures. It should be used in conjunction with a primary code describing the nature of the injury (e.g., fracture, sprain, concussion).

• Always sequence this code after the primary injury code.
• Ensure documentation clearly links the injury to participation in an obstacle course.
• Consider additional external cause codes if other factors contributed to the injury (e.g., Y92.310 for athletic field).
