Amputation injuries and prosthetics also pose many risks associated with medication side effects and other amputation complications, including:
In order to obtain the maximum possible result at settlement or trial, many amputation cases benefit from a life-care planner, vocational rehabilitation expert, and economist to provide support for the extent of economic damages that the amputation victim is, more likely than not, going to experience.
Almost two million people in the United States live with a lost limb. Approximately 185,000 amputations are performed in the United States each year. Every year, billions of dollars are spent on hospital costs associated with amputations. And nearly 45 percent of all amputations are due to a traumatic event.
In Texas, a total of 77,416 amputations were performed between 2007 and 2012. Between those same years, the rate of amputations increased by 15 %.
