A catastrophic injury is any type of physical or psychological injury that has a long-term, disabling effect. Catastrophic injuries may include paralysis, traumatic brain injuries, severe burns, spinal cord damage, multiple fractures, and amputations. These types of injuries often require extensive medical care and can lead to permanent disabilities such as loss of motor skills and cognitive abilities. They can also result in high financial costs due to the necessary treatment and rehabilitation needed to restore the quality of life for the victim. In addition, catastrophic injuries can be debilitating on an emotional level, leading to depression and other mental health issues.
