Spinal Injuries

According to data collected by the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center, there are over 250,000 people in the United States who are suffering from spinal cord injuries. Each year, approximately 11,000 people sustain a new spinal cord injury, which amounts to thirty new injuries every day.

The majority of spinal cord injuries occur as a result of trauma. It is seen that auto accidents are among the leading causes of such traumatic injuries. In some people, the cause may be medical malpractice – for example, surgical errors causing direct damage to the spinal cord or undiagnosed internal bleeding or an abscess that compresses the spinal cord or causes loss of blood flow to the cord.

Regardless of the cause, the impact from spinal cord injuries is both sudden and severe. There is the personal loss from the disruption of bodily function and from the pain associated with the injury. There is the financial loss from an inability to perform one’s job or perform duties at home. There is the cost of medical care, rehabilitation, and other costs associated with long-term care. There is also the emotional impact of adjusting to the changes seen from the loss of functioning and independence as a result of the injury. A spinal cord injury leads to many questions and issues to face.
