About the X92–Y09 Code Range
These codes describe assaults by methods including drowning, firearms, explosives, heat, physical force, and moving vehicles. They also identify perpetrators of assault, maltreatment, and neglect.
The categories separate methods: X92 covers drowning, while X93, X94, and X95 distinguish firearms. Other categories distinguish explosives, fire, hot objects, sharp or blunt objects, pushing, vehicle crashes, and bodily force. Subdivisions narrow the method further, such as the water setting under X92 or the moving object under Y02. Y07 instead distinguishes who committed assault, maltreatment, or neglect. Y08 identifies other specified means; Y09 identifies unspecified means.
For the listed assault-method categories, a seventh character distinguishes initial encounter (A), subsequent encounter (D), and sequela (S), a later effect.
