Spinal Cord Injuries – Part 1: Overview

Spinal Cord Injuries – Part 1: Overview

Spinal cord injuries are particularly devastating to accident victims. Spine injuries affect the part of the body that controls movement and sensation, often resulting in paralysis, paraplegia, and quadriplegia. The law refers to spinal injuries as “catastrophic,” or injuries that result in long-term disability to the victim. There is no cure for spine injuries.

About 17,000 new spinal injuries occur every year, not including those who die from these injuries at the scene of the accident.
