A catastrophic injury is damage to the body that causes incapacitation or critical harm. It requires long-term treatment or healing. It may also cause long term disability. A catastrophic injury interferes with the activity of everyday life including loss of limb, a brain injury, loss of major function or death. An illness can also be a catastrophic injury.
Examples of Catastrophic Injuries
- Traumatic Brain Injury
- Spinal Cord Injury
- Birth Injury
- Loss of Limbs
