Burns result from electrocution, defective household products, home appliances, automobiles and even faulty smoke detectors. Half of all burn injuries could have been prevented. Each year in the United States 2 million people suffer burns. A burn injury expert witness can be valuable to help you prove negligence in your case as over 6,000 die from their injuries.
The debilitating aspect of burn injuries is the severity. Burns range from first degree (only the top layer of skin, the epidermis, is burned), second degree (the second layer of skin is also burned, resulting in blisters and painful swelling), third degree (damages and permanently destroys deeper tissues) and fourth degree (destroying skin, fat, muscle, and sometimes bone.)
Severity of a burn injury is based on:
- Degree (depth)
- Size (percentage of the skin affected)
- Age of the injured person
- Location of the burn on the body
Not only can severe burns result in permanent disability, they also carry a risk of infection. For many burn victims, long-term rehabilitation is crucial to the healing process. This can include physical therapy, occupational therapy, or even speech-language pathology.
