Paralysis

Fresno Paralysis and Medical Malpractice Claims

Paralysis is a loss of sensation or control in parts of the body. For example, paraplegia is the paralysis of the lower extremities. Paralysis often occurs because the nerve cells in the spinal cord and other parts of the body have become damaged or severed, which interrupts the transfer of signals from the brain to the affected area. Since nerve cells do not regenerate in our bodies as readily as other tissues, paralysis is often permanent. Paralysis may be linked to medical malpractice if the paralysis is due to a health care provider's negligence or failure to provide suitable care in keeping with standard medical practices.  Some examples of medical malpractice-related paralysis may include:

• Paralysis from birth injuries just as facial paralysis, Erb’s Palsy, or brachila plexus injury
• Paralysis from anesthesia error, such as nerve damage sustained from an improperly administered epidural
• Surgical injuries
• Cosmetic or Plastic surgery errors that lead to paralysis (usually localized to the face)
