Catastrophic Injuries
A catastrophic injury is a very serious, life debilitating injury that may result in permanent disabilities, medical conditions, or a shortened life span. People who sustain catastrophic injuries often experience a great deal of physical pain and emotional suffering. Additionally, people who are catastrophically injured need continual medical treatment from doctors, surgeons, physical therapists, and medications.

- respiratory system dysfunction
- digestive system dysfunction

- numbness in limbs
