Quadriplegia

Quadriplegia, also known as tetraplegia, is a catastrophic type of spinal cord injury that results in the loss of sensation and movement in the arms, legs, and torso. This type of injury occurs when there is damage to the cervical (neck) region of the spinal cord. The severity of quadriplegia can vary, depending on the extent of the injury. In some cases, an individual may experience partial paralysis or weakness in the affected limbs, while in other cases, they may be completely paralyzed from the neck down. It can result from a variety of causes, such as car accidents, falls, sports injuries, and medical malpractice.

In addition to loss of sensation and movement, quadriplegia can cause a wide range of physical and neurological symptoms, including difficulty breathing, loss of bowel and bladder control, and difficulty regulating body temperature. The injury can also impact a person's ability to speak, swallow, and perform other everyday tasks.

Treatment for quadriplegia may include physical therapy, occupational therapy, medication, and surgery, and may require ongoing care and support. Individuals with quadriplegia often require assistance with everyday tasks, and may need to modify their living environment to accommodate their needs.

If quadriplegia is caused by the negligence or misconduct of another party, such as a car accident caused by a drunk driver or a workplace accident caused by a safety violation, the injured individual may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other damages related to their injury.
