Catastrophic Injury Attorney in Daytona Beach
Define What Catastrophic Injury is in Florida
After being injured in an accident, the situation and your injuries are going to feel severe or even catastrophic to you. Does that mean that your injury is technically considered catastrophic? Not necessarily.
There is no universally accepted definition for a catastrophic injury. Although, in medical and insurance contexts, a catastrophic injury is usually one that is immediately life-threatening or will result in life-changing symptoms. Typically, a catastrophic injury involves harm done to the head, brain, spine, or neck. Something like a broken arm, for example, might be extremely painful but it is probably not catastrophic given that the wound should eventually heal to the point that full use of the arm is restored.

- Traumatic brain injury (TBI): The location of a brain injury will also dramatically change the consequences and lifelong symptoms the victim experiences. Brain injury survivors can experience memory loss, speech impediments, migraines, loss of motor control over certain body parts, insomnia, anxiety, depression, and much more.
- Third-degree burns: When exposed to extreme heat or caustic chemicals, the result can be a third-degree burn. Destruction of tissues down to the bone is a characteristic sign of a third-degree burn, and emergency medical attention and extensive hospitalization will be required to treat the burn victim.
- Internal organ injury: Harm to an internal organ can also result in a catastrophic injury if that organ does not heal properly. For example, blunt force trauma to the liver in a car accident can eventually cause liver failure or other complications.
