CATASTROPHIC INJURIES

EXTREME PERSONAL INJURY ACCIDENTS

The most severe types of accidents result in catastrophic injuries. This type of injury usually means that the victim has been permanently debilitated in some way. These typically need continued care rather than a one-time medical treatment. Consequently, these cases need to be dealt with in a more serious manner to convey the gravity of the situation.

There are many different forms of catastrophic injuries, but the most common are listed below:

• Burn Injuries – Those involved in accidents characterized by toxic chemicals, fires or explosions may have sustained burns. Burn injuries differ based on degree and depth of skin that the burn affected. To treat these injuries, patients may need skin grafts, although scars may be permanently visible.
• Spinal Cord Injuries – An injury to the spinal cord is so severe because it is closely tied with the nervous system. Those who injure their spinal cord may face partial or complete paralysis as a result. What this means is that they may never be able to use their limbs again.
• Traumatic Brain Injury – A serious head injury that affects the brain has serious consequences for a person’s mental ability. These can cause amnesia, insomnia and even cause mental handicaps. These are particularly tragic because they cause a person to act in a completely different way than they would have before an accident.
