What is the criterion for minor injury level 1

Mondo Social Updated on 2024-03-03

Minor injuries in the first degree refer to injuries that cause damage to a person's limbs or appearance, partial impairment of hearing, vision or other organ functions, or other injuries that have moderate harm to personal health, including three degrees: minor injuries of the first degree, minor injuries of the second degree and minor injuries. Minor injuries (1st degree) are the most serious of minor injuries and are criminal cases. According to the "Criteria for the Appraisal of the Degree of Human Injury", the first level of minor injury mainly includes the following situations:

1.Craniocerebral and spinal cord injuries.

2.Facial and auricular injuries.

3.Hearing loss of hearing instruments.

4.Eye damage, visual impairment and other visual organ damage.

5.Neck injuries.

6.Chest injury.

7.Abdominal injury.

8.Pelvic and perineal injuries.

9.Injuries to the spine and limbs.

10.Hand injuries.

11.Foot injuries.

In the specific assessment, the first-degree criteria for minor injuries are also different for different parts, such as:

1.For craniocerebral or spinal cord injuries, the first-degree criterion for minor injuries is vegetative state; or quadriplegia (muscle strength level 3 or less); or hemiplegia or paraplegia (muscle strength level 2 or less); or monoplegia (muscle strength level 2 or less); or hemi-body or partial body type with complete ** lack of sensation.

2.For facial and auricular injuries, the criteria for minor injuries are disfigurement (severe); or facial nerve palsy (disappearance of one frontal line, enlargement of palpebral fission, inability to frown, shallow nasolabial folds, etc.); Or oral and maxillofacial injuries, tooth loss, or more than 2 broken teeth.

3.For hearing impairment of hearing instruments, the criteria for minor injury level 1 are hearing impairment in both ears (41dB HL); or severe hearing impairment in both ears (61dB HL); or speech and hearing impairment (71dB HL); or hearing impairment with loss of one pinna (in addition to hearing dysfunction, the other pinna has one of the above types of impairment).

4.For optic injuries such as eye injuries and visual impairments, the criterion for minor injuries is blindness; or low vision level 2 in both eyes; or loss of light sensitivity of more than 20° in the central visual field; or the radius of the field of view is less than 5°.

5.For neck injuries, the criteria for a minor injury grade 1 is a single wound in the anterior neck or a scar length of 100cm or more; or a scar on the front of the neck, with a cumulative length of 180cm or more.

6.For thoracic injuries, the criterion for a minor injury is hemopericardium due to cardiac contusion; or cardiac contusion leading to heart wall thrombosis; or acute cardiac dysfunction caused by damage to the volume of the heart chambers (ventricular septal defect).

7.For abdominal injuries, the criteria for minor injuries are full-thickness rupture of the stomach, bowel, gallbladder, or biliary tract, requiring surgery**; or ruptured pancreas, requiring surgery**; or a ruptured ureter, requiring surgery**, etc.

8.For pelvic and perineal injuries, the criteria for minor injuries in the first degree are pelvic fracture malunion; or the pelvic fracture is severely displaced, and the symptoms are obvious; or one ureter is absent or atresia; or severe scarring after bladder rupture repair, resulting in contractures.

9.For spinal limb injuries, the criteria for minor injuries are scoliosis or kyphosis of more than 30° after spinal fracture; or have a fracture of the long bones of the limbs with an angulation deformity of 15° and a limb shortening of 40cm or more; Or there are long bone fractures of limbs complicated by chronic osteomyelitis, reversive, etc.

10.For hand injuries, the criteria for a minor injury level 1 are loss of hand function up to 36% cumulatively; or more than 5% of the palms of both hands are missing or more than 20% of the palms of both hands are not functioning; or more than 30% of the ten fingers of both hands are missing or more than 30% of the ten fingers of both hands are lost.

11.For foot injuries, the criteria for minor injuries are structural destruction of the arch due to a fracture of the foot; or foot disconnection, defect, or total toe loss, which cumulatively corresponds to the destruction of one arch structure1 3 or more; or the interankle joint is severed or defected up to more than half the diameter of the upper tibia; or partial destruction of the arch structure of one foot, accumulating 4 toes, etc.

It should be noted that the above are only some of the criteria for the first level of minor injury, in fact, there are many other standards, so the specific assessment needs to be evaluated and judged according to the "Appraisal Standards for the Degree of Human Injury". At the same time, in real life, we should also try our best to avoid situations that cause harm to others, so as to avoid unnecessary loss and pain to both parties.
