What Are Catastrophic Injuries?

While individuals can recover from minor injuries in a matter of days or weeks and likely return to a normal way of life, individuals who sustain catastrophic injuries face a long and difficult road to recovery. Catastrophic injuries can permanently impair the physical, cognitive, and behavioral function of the victim. Such individuals often require long-term medical care, physical therapy, and support to recover.

Common types of catastrophic injuries include:

• Fatal injuries: Death caused by negligence or other wrongful conduct
• Brain injuries: Head trauma, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), brain damage, brain concussions, and brain contusions
• Back and spinal cord injuries: Severed or damaged spinal cord, paralysis injuries, quadriplegia, paraplegia
• Burn injuries: Chemical burns, fire injuries requiring hospitalization, skin grafts, plastic surgery, and infections

Common actions that can cause catastrophic injury to innocent victims include the following:

• Medical malpractice: Human errors by professional healthcare providers are a leading cause of injury and death to American citizens.
• Truck accidents: Truck accidents often cause catastrophic injuries to the person involved due to the size and weight of the vehicles involved. Tractor-trailers can weigh more than 30,000 pounds and can cause severe injury and damage to the persons involved.
• Car accidents: Cars that are speeding at the time of collision can and do cause serious injuries. Head-on collisions are the most dangerous kind of car accident and often result in catastrophic head and brain injuries. Ruptured gasoline tanks can cause fires that result in serious burn injuries.
• Product liability: Defective medical and consumer products can cause organ injury or failure, back injury, burns, broken bones, amputations, and more. Manufacturers or sellers of products can be held liable for damages if there is a dangerous defect in a product or if they fail to warn consumers about the risks of using their products.
