Abstract:

AbstractThis case study analysed the expert judgments of a rehabilitation counsellor. The counsellor was given 37 accident victims' self-ratings of health, energy, daily activities, self-esteem, personal relations, financial resources and living conditions. The accident victims also rated their own overall quality of life as poor or good. The expert was required to make judgments about whether the quality of life was poor or good in each case and matched the ratings of the accident victims in 64.8% of cases. The results suggest that under conditions of uncertainty and complexity an expert may

This study aims to analyze the legal protection provided to victims of accidents caused by potholes on the Palembang-Lampung toll road. The research method used is descriptive with a qualitative approach, involving analysis of legal documents, interviews, and field observations. The results show that the losses suffered by victims due to potholes on the road do not always receive adequate compensation in accordance with the losses suffered. Legal protection for victims is still limited and not optimal, especially in terms of fulfilling the rights of victims to compensation and rehabilitation.

Abstract:

On January 1, 1995, Saskatchewan adopted a radical, no-fault system for motor vehicle accident insurance. Virtually no room was left for injured victims to sue for damages, whether for pain and suffering or for economic compensation. In fact, the no-fault system removed benefits for pain and suffering altogether. Apart from the concern that arose at the denial of justice in relation to economic matters and the blanket denial of pain, there was concern over the arrangements for medical care. Under the new Automobile Accident Insurance Act, injured persons were entitled to compensation and payme

A total of 27 participants of both sexes with moderate or severe ABI participated in an investigation in a clinical trial-type design with pre-test and post-test.

Introduction. The number of victims with abdominal trauma over the past 20 years has not tended to decrease due to an increase in the number of road accidents, falls from heights, man-made disasters and natural disasters. Diagnosis of damage to hollow organs should be fast and accurate, since the time factor in providing medical care to such patients is crucial. The delay of surgery for intestinal injury for 24 hours or more is associated with an increase in the mortality rate of up to 30%. In such cases, computed tomography is the method of choice for hemodynamically stable patients with clos

Despite the lack of specific data there are reasons to believe that third-world countries have more disabilities and fewer resources and capacity for rehabilitation.

Background: Traumatic brain injury is the most common cause of death in trauma victims accounting for about half of deaths at the accident site.
