W37.0Explosion of bicycle tire

W37.0 is the ICD-10-CM diagnosis code for explosion of bicycle tire. It belongs to category W37 (explosion and rupture of pressurized tire, pipe or hose), block W20-W49 (exposure to inanimate mechanical forces) and chapter 20 (external causes of morbidity). It is a header code, so it can't be reported by itself; one of its 3 subcodes must be used instead.

Within W37 (explosion and rupture of pressurized tire, pipe or hose), W37.0 is specifically for explosion of bicycle tire. Related codes cover and rupture of other pressurized tire, pipe or hose (W37.8).

Codes in this range require a 7th character: A for initial encounter, D for subsequent encounter and S for sequela. Use placeholder "X" characters to fill any empty positions before the 7th character.

It has been part of ICD-10-CM since the code set took effect on October 1, 2015 and hasn't changed since.
