Comment 21 to 30 Removal of extensive muscle tissue and extensive scarring may have a significant enough impact to fall within this item. An injury to multiple joints or ligaments causing instability, prolonged treatment and a long period of non-weight-bearing may have a significant enough impact to fall within this item, but generally only if those results are combined. Example of the injury multiple complex fractures of the lower limb that are expected to take years to heal and cause serious deformity and serious limitation of mobility Comment about appropriate level of ISV An ISV at or near the bottom of the range will be appropriate if there is a DPI for the injury of 16%. An ISV at or near the top of the range will be appropriate if there is a DPI for the injury of 25%.
