V02.1

Clinical Causes: Collision with motorcycles, scooters, or mopeds while walking or crossing the street. Abrupt turning or lane changes by the motor vehicle resulting in a pedestrian impact. Failure of the motor vehicle driver to notice or yield to pedestrians, especially in busy traffic areas. Poor visibility conditions such as night-time, fog, or rainy weather reducing the driver's ability to see pedestrians. Distracted driving involving mobile phones or other distractions diverting attention from road users, including pedestrians.

Key Symptoms: Pain at the site of injury, which may be severe depending on the impact. Bruising or swelling of affected areas. Cuts, lacerations, or abrasions, particularly if vehicle wheels or parts come into contact with the pedestrian. Unconsciousness or disorientation in cases of head trauma. Broken bones or fractures, commonly in limbs or ribs. Internal injuries that may cause bleeding or organ damage. Signs of shock, such as pallor, rapid heartbeat, or dizziness.

Diagnosis Path: X-rays to identify fractures or dislocations. Ultrasound or CT scans to detect internal injuries or bleeding. Neurological assessments if head trauma is suspected. Blood tests to check for signs of internal damage or infection.

Treatment Protocols: Emergency management to stabilize vital functions, including airway, breathing, and circulation. Wound care, involving cleaning, suturing, or dressing of cuts and abrasions. Immobilization of fractures using splints or casts. Surgical interventions for severe injuries, such as internal bleeding, complex fractures, or organ damage. Pain management through medications. Rehabilitation therapy, including physical or occupational therapy, for recovery and restoring function. Monitoring for potential complications such as infections or blood clots.
