What Is a Catastrophic Injury?

A catastrophic injury is a severe injury that has long-lasting or permanent effects on the victim's life. These injuries typically result in significant physical, emotional, and financial consequences for the victim and their family. Severe injuries often require extensive medical treatment, long-term care, and rehabilitation, and may leave the victim unable to work or engage in normal daily activities. A catastrophic injury is a broad term used to encompass a set of injuries that negatively impact a person’s mobility and/or brain function. For example, brain injuries are considered catastrophic.

Examples of catastrophic injuries include the following:

  • Blunt force trauma: This often results from car accidents, assaults, or falls. It can result in internal bleeding, organ damage, and broken bones. The consequences could be life-threatening or result in lifelong disabilities.
  • Brain injuries: Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) can occur from various causes, such as car accidents, sports injuries, or violent encounters. TBIs can lead to cognitive impairments, memory loss, and even personality changes.
  • Burn injuries: Severe burns can happen from exposure to fire, chemicals, or extreme heat. Third-degree or fourth-degree burns can result in permanent scarring, infections, and the need for numerous surgeries and skin grafts.
  • Hearing and vision loss: Sudden or severe loss of hearing or vision can result from head injuries, exposure to loud noises, or chemical exposure. Losing one's ability to hear or see has a significant impact on quality of life.
  • Neck and back injuries: Injuries to the neck and back can occur in various circumstances, such as in vehicle collisions or from heavy lifting. These injuries can lead to chronic pain and may require surgeries and ongoing physical therapy.
  • Spinal cord injuries: Damage to the spinal cord often has immediate and long-lasting effects, which can include paralysis, loss of sensation, and other chronic conditions. Treatment typically involves long-term medical care.

What Do Catastrophic Injuries Affect?

The most heartbreaking aspect of catastrophic injuries is how they negatively impact a person’s quality of life. After suffering a catastrophic injury, many people are forced to require assistance for the rest of their lives and others live most of their days experiencing unnecessary pain. After a person’s ability to interact with the world is hindered, they experience a slew of emotional and financial hardships that no one should ever have to endure.

What Compensation Can Individuals with Catastrophic Injuries Seek?

When the negligence of someone else causes a person to sustain catastrophic injuries, the injured person might be able to seek compensation from the responsible party. As with many personal injury cases, someone with catastrophic injuries can seek compensation for pain and suffering, medical bills, and lost wages. Since catastrophic injuries are permanent, a person can also seek compensation for the loss of the ability to work, future medical care, and more.

Who Is Liable for Catastrophic Injuries?

A party responsible for negligence may be held accountable for catastrophic injuries. This encompasses employers, companies, individuals, or other entities responsible for a person's injuries. For instance, a company not ensuring a safe workplace could be held accountable for severe injuries suffered by employees. Similarly, if an individual's unsafe driving leads to a car accident, they too may be liable. Consulting an attorney can assist in determining which parties are liable.
