ICD-10-CM V00.138D: Other skateboard accident, subsequent encounter
ICD-10-CM code V00.138D is an active terminology concept representing a subsequent encounter for an other skateboard accident. It is classified under the parent concept V00.138 and carries the semantic type of Injury or Poisoning. The code appears in ambulatory surgery external cause data, distinguishing it from sequela codes. 1 3
Plain-language overview
Code V00.138D is an active classification for an other skateboard accident during a subsequent encounter, and it is assigned the semantic type of Injury or Poisoning. 1
What this code represents
The terminology record assigns V00.138D the preferred name of Other skateboard accident, subsequent encounter, placing it under the parent concept V00.138 and giving it the semantic type of Injury or Poisoning. 1
The code V00.138D appears in an ambulatory surgery dataset tracking external causes of injury and morbidity, where it is listed alongside related codes for other skateboard accidents. 3
Coding details
The terminology record lists V00.138D as an active concept with narrower concepts, and an ambulatory surgery dataset pairs it with V00.138S, named Other skateboard accident, sequela. 1 3
Documentation considerations
The terminology record identifies V00.138D as a subsequent encounter for an other skateboard accident, and an ambulatory surgery dataset records five instances of this specific external cause code. 1 3
Clinical context
A retrospective hospital analysis of skateboard injuries identified 50 patients, noting that 39 were younger than 15 years of age and 40 were males, without encountering open fractures or head and neck injuries. 2
Coverage and utilization context
In a 2018 ambulatory surgery dataset, the external cause code V00.138D was recorded five times, while the related sequela code V00.138S appeared twice, indicating specific utilization frequencies for these classifications. 3
What the sources add
The terminology record establishes the hierarchical definition and active status of V00.138D, while the ambulatory surgery dataset shows its frequency use alongside related sequela codes. 1 3
A clinical study reports patient demographics and injury characteristics for skateboard accidents, whereas the terminology record provides the preferred name and parent concept for V00.138D. 1 2
