This section is provided to permit the classification of environmental events, circumstances,
and conditions as the cause of injury, poisoning, and other adverse effects. Where a code
from this section is applicable, it is intended that it shall be used in addition to a code
from one of the main chapters of ICD-9-CM, indicating the nature of the condition. Certain
other conditions which may be stated to be due to external causes are classified in Chapters
1 to 16 of ICD-9-CM. For these, the "E" code classification should be used as an additional
code for more detailed analysis.
Machinery accidents [other than those connected with transport] are classifiable to category
E919, in which the fourth digit allows a broad classification of the type of machinery
involved. If a more detailed classification of type of machinery is required, it is
suggested that the "Classification of Industrial Accidents according to Agency," prepared by
the International Labor Office, be used in addition; it is included in this publication.
Categories for "late effects" of accidents and other external causes are to be found at E929,
E959, E969, E977, E989, and E999.
Definitions and examples related to transport accidents
(a) A transport accident (E800-E848) is any accident involving a device designed primarily
for, or being used at the time primarily for, conveying persons or goods from one place to another.
Includes: accidents involving:
aircraft and spacecraft (E840-E845)
watercraft (E830-E838)
motor vehicle (E810-E825)
railway (E800-E807)
other road vehicles (E826-E829)
In classifying accidents which involve more than one kind of transport, the above order of
precedence of transport accidents should be used.
Accidents involving agricultural and construction machines, such as tractors, cranes, and
bulldozers, are regarded as transport accidents only when these vehicles are under their
own power on a highway [otherwise the vehicles are regarded as machinery]. Vehicles which
can travel on land or water, such as hovercraft and other amphibious vehicles, are regarded
as watercraft when on the water, as motor vehicles when on the highway, and as off-road motor
vehicles when on land, but off the highway.
Excludes: accidents:
in sports which involve the use of transport but where the transport vehicle itself was not
involved in the accident
involving vehicles which are part of industrial equipment used entirely on industrial premises
occurring during transportation but unrelated to the hazards associated with the means of
transportation [e.g., injuries received in a fight on board ship; transport vehicle involved
in a cataclysm such as an earthquake]
to persons engaged in the maintenance or repair of transport equipment or vehicle not in motion,
unless injured by another vehicle in motion
(b) A railway accident is a transport accident involving a railway train or other railway
vehicle operated on rails, whether in motion or not.
Excludes: accidents:
in repair shops
in roundhouse or on turntable
on railway premises but not involving a train or other railway vehicle
(c) A railway train or railway vehicle is any device with or without cars coupled to it,
designed for traffic on a railway.
Includes: interurban:
electric car (operated chiefly on its own right-of-way, not open to other traffic)
streetcar (operated chiefly on its own right-of-way, not open to other traffic)
railway train, any power [diesel] [electric] [steam]
funicular
monorail or two-rail
subterranean or elevated
other vehicle designed to run on a railway track
Excludes: interurban electric cars [streetcars] specified to be operating on a
right-of-way that forms part of the public street or highway [definition (n)]
(d) A railway or railroad is a right-of-way designed for traffic on rails, which is
used by carriages or wagons transporting passengers or freight, and by other rolling stock,
and which is not open to other public vehicular traffic
(e) A motor vehicle accident is a transport accident involving a motor vehicle. It is
defined as a motor vehicle traffic accident or as a motor vehicle nontraffic accident
according to whether the accident occurs on a public highway or elsewhere.
Excludes: injury or damage due to cataclysm
injury or damage while a motor vehicle, not under its own power, is being loaded on, or
unloaded from, another conveyance
(f) A motor vehicle traffic accident is any motor vehicle accident occurring on a public
highway [i.e., originating, terminating, or involving a vehicle partially on the highway].
A motor vehicle accident is assumed to have occurred on the highway unless another place is
specified, except in the case of accidents involving only off-road motor vehicles which are
classified as nontraffic accidents unless the contrary is stated.
(g) A motor vehicle nontraffic accident is any motor vehicle accident which occurs
entirely in any place other than a public highway.
(h) A public highway [trafficway] or street is the entire width between property lines
[or other boundary lines] of every way or place, of which any part is open to the use of
the public for purposes of vehicular traffic as a matter of right or custom. A roadway is
that part of the public highway designed, improved, and ordinarily used, for vehicular travel.
