Injuries involving multiple body regions (T07)

The ICD-10-CM code T07 covers unspecified multiple injuries that involve more than one body region. These codes are used to document a variety of traumatic injuries affecting several areas simultaneously, without specifying exact details.

Codes such as T07.XXXA, T07.XXXD, and T07.XXXS describe initial encounters, subsequent encounters, and sequelae of multiple injuries, respectively. This range includes injuries like crushing injuries, contusions, multiple fractures, open wounds, dislocations, sprains, and tendon ruptures occurring in different limbs or body regions together. The synonyms listed clarify that these codes apply to complex trauma cases involving combinations of fractures, open wounds, nerve injuries, and organ trauma across various upper limbs, lower limbs, trunk, or pelvis. For medical coders, connecting terms like "multiple traumatic injuries," "open fractures of multiple bones," and "injury involving multiple body regions" to T07 codes helps accurately capture these multi-site injuries in health records and billing systems, ensuring precise classification in trauma management and follow-up care.
