Brain Injury Claim
The brain is the center of many varieties of conscious and unconscious activities. When assaulted, the effects can be very catastrophic. Brain injury can be caused by accidents like automobile and motorcycle collisions, slip and falls, blows and sports injuries, resulting to fractures, bruises in brain tissue, or internal bleeding. Its effects can last for a short amount of time, or can be life-long.
There are three types of brain injury, depending on its severity. Mild brain injuries are usually caused by impacts like blows or concussions in the head. Victims may suffer loss of consciousness, amnesia, or chronic problems in cognition and personality. Moderate brain injuries, on the other hand, occur when somebody loses his/her consciousness that lasts for hours after the assault. Injured patients may suffer physical, cognitive and psychological impairments which can last for months or even for life. Immediate treatment must be done in order to make a full recovery for the patient.
Severe brain injuries usually result from fractured skulls or penetrating wounds that cause bruises or tears to the brain tissue. This is categorized as the most fatal type of brain injury, and is very irreparable. Victims usually fall into prolonged coma, or in a vegetative state. They also become paralyzed and almost all of their senses are lost.
