Stand Up is an action, and can face a DX roll, which would be modified in this case.
ITL 102: "STAND UP. Rise from prone, kneeling, or knocked down position at the end of the combat phase, or crawl 2 hexes; take no other action" [Other than this Stand Up action]
ITL 26: "and even if a figure simply stands still in a slippery hex, it must make the saving roll to avoid falling." [At the adjusted DX level.]
Heck even running at full MA or dodging at half MA can count as a figure's action for that turn.
For programming purposes I'd set a flag with three states:
A: No penalty: default state. When five hits are taken in a single blow go to B.
B: -2 DX. When the figure takes an action go to C.
C: -2 DX. When the end of a turn is reached go to A.
