Traumatic Brain Injury – Medical Malpractice
When Medical Negligence Causes Lifelong Consequences
Traumatic brain injuries (TBIs) are among the most serious and life-altering forms of harm a person can suffer. When a TBI results from medical negligence—whether during surgery, emergency care, childbirth, or post-operative monitoring—the damage can be permanent, devastating, and preventable.
At DiSilvio Young, we represent individuals and families whose lives have been forever changed by preventable brain injuries. We investigate what went wrong, uncover the truth, and hold negligent providers accountable.
What Is Traumatic Brain Injury?
A traumatic brain injury occurs when there is a sudden and forceful impact on the brain, or when the brain is deprived of oxygen. In medical settings, TBIs can be caused by:
Types of Abuse:
-
Surgical errors involving the brain or skull
-
Failure to monitor oxygen levels during anesthesia or childbirth
-
Delayed diagnosis of a stroke, aneurysm, or brain bleed
-
Failure to treat or recognize head trauma in emergency rooms
-
Neglect leading to falls or physical abuse in nursing homes
These injuries can lead to cognitive impairment, physical disability, personality changes, and a lifetime of challenges for the injured person and their family.
Symptoms and Long-Term Effects of TBI
The signs of a traumatic brain injury can vary widely but may include:
-
Loss of consciousness
-
Memory loss or confusion
-
Difficulty speaking or understanding language
-
Vision or hearing problems
-
Seizures or coordination issues
-
Personality changes, depression, or anxiety
-
Inability to work or live independently
Severe TBIs often require long-term rehabilitation, assistive technology, and full-time care—making the financial and emotional impact overwhelming.
