How They Happen

A quick look at the statistics show us that anyone is at risk for a spinal cord injury. How do they happen?

  • Vehicle Accidents – 38 percent
  • Falls – 30 percent
  • Violence – 14 percent
  • Sports/Recreation – 9 percent
  • Medical/Surgical Mistakes – 5 percent
  • Other – 4 percent

Who Do They Affect?

There are around 250,000 people living in the United States with spinal cord injuries.

  • 52 percent are paraplegic
  • 47 percent are quadriplegic

There are around 11,000 new spinal cord injuries each year. Most new spinal cord injury patients (78 percent) are male.

Cost

In just the first year of care, the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center estimates the following cost of care:

  • High Tetraplegia – $1 million
  • Low Tetraplegia – $769,000
  • Paraplegia – $518,000
  • Incomplete Motor Function – $347,000

The first year after an injury is difficult, with many trips to specialists who are often out of town. Paying for these trips, as well as time away from work for family members to travel with you, significantly add to these costs.

Most spinal cord injury patients return to the hospital a few times a year with illnesses related to the injury. This adds to the annual cost of care.

Lifestyle Change

There are other costs aside from medical expenses. With spinal cord injuries, often there will be a complete lifestyle change for the victim as well as their families.

You may need a specialized wheelchair. There will likely need to be some kind of accommodation built into the house, depending on the severity of the injury. The doorways may need to be widened so that a wheelchair can fit through them. You may need a new vehicle that is wheelchair accessible.
