Brain injury victims deserve full compensation

Free Consultation713-781-5200

Texans with loved ones in the hospital often visit them frequently. While the hope is that their loved one will show improvement with each passing day, a routine visit could turn devastating if they find their loved one is in a coma or passed away due to a brain injury. Physicians may claim that these things happen, and nothing could have been done to prevent them. However, this is not always the case.

There are a variety of ways that a person could suffer a brain injury due to the negligence of a medical professional. For example, anesthesia complications, including improper intubation and improper monitoring could cause a brain injury. Birth injuries and fetal brain injuries could result in long-lasting damages, including cerebral palsy and developmental deficits. Some brain injuries are caused by pulmonary embolism. A misdiagnosis of a heart attack or stoke could cause a brain injury. After a surgical procedure, inadequate monitoring could lead to a brain injury. Finally, medication errors could cause a person to suffer a stroke or seizure leading to a brain injury.

Whatever the cause, a brain injury could effect a person for the rest of their life and could even result in death. When it is a medical professional who is responsible for the injury, the brain injury victim or his or her family may want to explore their options for compensation. For some, this means pursuing a medical malpractice claim.
