Bodily Injury Liability in Allentown, PA
Coma Malpractice - The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) defines a coma as “a profound or deep state of unconsciousness.” A person who is in a coma is alive but is unable to move, think, or respond to the environment. Coma patients retain non-cognitive function and normal sleep patterns but are not aware of their surroundings. Comas rarely last longer than 2 to 4 weeks, and a patient who comes out of a coma will typically require some time to recover. Some patients will not regain more than basic functions, while others will make full recoveries.
Comas are caused by injury to the brain, which may come from various sources:
- Head trauma sustained in an accident
- Infection affecting the brain
- Medication or drug overdose
- Stroke
- Lack of oxygen to the brain
- Near drowning
- Brain tumor
- Seizures
- Exposure to toxins
Concussion Injuries
A concussion is a serious type of traumatic brain injury (TBI) that occurs when a blow to the head or body causes the head to move back and forth rapidly and suddenly. The brain then moves within the skull in a bouncing or twisting motion. A concussion is characterized by a temporary loss of normal brain function, and a person who sustains a concussion may experience the following side effects:
- Headache
- Blurred vision
- Nausea
- Dizziness
- Light sensitivity
- Fatigue
- Difficulty concentrating
- Short term memory loss
- Irritability or anxiety
Types of Burn Injuries
Because burns have various causes and may range in severity, it is important to identify the specific cause and therefore who is liable. It can be helpful to understand the different types and common causes of burns.
