yes, blunt force trauma is simple a classification of types of trauma. The other type would be penetrating trauma. This in no way indicates any kind of severity of injury. Blunt force trauma can be anything from being punched in the arm to getting hit in the head and body with a Baseball bat. So falling down steps would be classified as blunt force trauma, if an injury occurred.
