What Makes an Injury "Catastrophic"?
A catastrophic injury is set apart by the level of severity and long-lasting effect it has on the individual and their family. Someone who has suffered a catastrophic injury cannot go back to life as they previously knew it; their physical, mental, and emotional health is permanently changed.
Here are some examples of common catastrophic injuries:
- Traumatic brain injuries - When the brain is damaged it can lead to permanent loss of use or function. Many TBI victims experience loss of mobility, speech, sight, and cognitive ability.
- Spinal cord injuries - Damage to the spinal cord almost always results in some form of paralysis. Minor cases may cause paralysis of a hand or foot, but more severe cases can result in paralysis of a full limb or paraplegia/quadriplegia.
- Burn injuries - Severe burns cause intense pain and often result in permanent scarring. Burn injury victims must undergo weeks of treatment which can become very costly very fast.
- Amputation injuries - The loss of a limb, whether it happened at the time of the accident or as a result of other injuries, will permanently and significantly change the life of the victim. It can prevent them from ever returning to meaningful employment or enjoying the things they used to love.
What Are Common Causes of Catastrophic Injury?
Life-altering injuries occur on a daily basis in Atlanta and can be caused by any number of things. However, the most common causes of catastrophic injuries involve:
- Motor vehicle accidents - The majority of catastrophic injuries are caused by accidents involving cars, commercial trucks, motorcycles, and other vehicles. The sudden force and heavy impact of motor vehicle collisions can easily cause injuries to the brain, neck, spine, and even loss of limb.
- Falls - Falling from a great height or even slipping on a wet floor can cause a brain injury, broken bones, or worse. Construction workers are at a high risk of suffering falls, but anyone can slip and fall on an uneven step or wet sidewalk.
- Sports injuries - Despite wearing a heavy amount of protective gear, professional, student, and even amateur athletes are at risk of suffering brain injuries, spinal cord damage, and broken bones.
- Workplace accidents - There are many dangerous occupations in Georgia, including agriculture, construction, fishing, logging, and factories. Workers in these industries are at great risk of suffering catastrophic injuries. However, even white-collar workers can suffer a life-altering injury while on the job.
- Medical malpractice - When doctors, surgeons, or nurses make mistakes, the results are often catastrophic. Surgical errors, anesthesia mistakes, and medication errors can all result in life-altering injuries to a patient.
When a catastrophic injury is caused by the negligence of another person or entity, you deserve justice; it’s that simple! Let the Atlanta catastrophic injury lawyers at Ross & Pines pursue the maximum compensation that you deserve for your injuries and the loss of quality of life that accompanies these types of accidents.
