According to the National Center for Injury Prevention and Control, 1.4 million Americans suffer a traumatic brain injury each year. Of those, 50,000 die and 1.1 million are treated and released. But a large number, 235,000 victims, are hospitalized and could suffer serious brain injuries.
Unfortunately, children are most at risk for suffering accidents that could lead to a serious or traumatic brain injury. More than 475,000 children suffer from serious brain injury accidents each year. That means they're more likely to need extensive medical care for a long period of time; medical care that can get quite expensive in Kentucky.
While accidents are the greatest causes of brain injuries in Kentucky, they can also be caused by:
Slip and fall accidents
Car accidents
Motorcycle accidents
Inherited genetic defects
Viral infections
Trauma or drug use of the mother
Delivery medical malpractice
In some cases, brain injuries can be treated with surgery, but the patient may be left with limited mental abilities. Kentucky brain injury lawyers can help you sue whoever is responsible for you or your child's brain damage and make them pay for whatever expensive treatment is required.
Kentucky brain injury lawyers will also be able to sue for lost future income and for any pain and suffering.
