Burn injury classification and statistics

As reported by a National Hospital Ambulatory Medical Care survey, 486,000 people received medical treatment in hospital emergency room departments for their burn injuries during 2015. In addition, the National Safety Council reported that in the United States, the odds of a person dying from exposure to fire, flames or smoke is 1 in 1,498. The National Fire Protection Association stated that 78% of fire fatalities occurred in homes. These troubling statistics demonstrate the high risk of burn injuries, and unfortunately, far too many of these incidents are caused by someone's negligence.

The medical profession generally classifies burn injuries, according to the degree and severity of the burn, into the following three categories:

First-degree burn. With a first-degree burn, the outer lay of skin may appear red, but no blisters are present.
Second-degree burn. A second-degree burn may damage both outer and inner layers of skin, causing pain, redness, blistering and swelling.
Third-degree burn. With a third-degree burn, the skin may appear white or charred, with damage to both outer and inner layers of skin. Tissue and nerve damage is also common with third-degree burns.

Knowledgeable North Dakota burn injury lawyers know that severe burn injuries often present with additional complications. Victims may require extensive skin grafts or experience painful nerve damage. These injuries also carry a great risk of fatal infection and life-altering disfigurement. No matter the severity of your burn injuries, you deserve full monetary compensation for your pain and suffering. Rely on Larson Law. Our catastrophic injury lawyers understand that each case is unique, and we take the time to thoroughly review your circumstance to help you toward successfully resolving your personal injury claim.

In North Dakota, severe burn injuries often occur due to the hazardous working conditions found in the oil fields. Toxic, flammable gas often causes oil explosions and flash fires. Oil well fires occur when a spark makes contact with pressurized gas. These types of fire are extremely dangerous because of the high volume of fuel and heat.
