Quadriplegia

Quadriplegia is a spine injury that results in paralysis of all four limbs and require critical care for the survival and well being of the injured person. The level of the injury on the spinal column determines what is needed to care for the person. The lower the level of the spinal injury, the more function a person can have.

We consult with physicians and life care planners in these cases to make sure that the future needs and of the injured person and their family are met. We know that in these personal injury cases, there are not many available resources, and without legal help, the family will heroically struggle to provide for the basic survival of their family member. Many clients prefer to have their family member live at home. We have seen first hand how these families struggle though the night to provide the critical care needed. We have seen how these families obtain certifications so that they can take care of their family member in emergency situations and make sure that medicine and basic procedures can be administered. We have seen the fatigue and loneliness of these families. These cases are devastating and change lives and hope forever. In these cases, it is important to show the struggle of the entire family as well as the physical and mental challeges for their injured family member.

Each case is different and requires careful assessment of the damages and future needs for the injured person and his family.

Injuries above the C-4 level may require a ventilator or electrical implant for the person to breathe. This is because the diaphragm is controlled by spinal nerves in the upper level of the neck.

C-5 Injuries

C-5 injuries often result in shoulder and biceps control, but no control at the wrist or hand.

C-6 Injuries

C-6 injuries generally yield wrist control, but no ability to use the hands.

C-7 and T-1 Injuries

Individuals with C-7 and T-1 injuries can straighten their arms but still may have dexterity problems with the hand and fingers.
