Questione giuridica chiave
Whether SUVA had to continue accident insurance benefits beyond 31 October 2004
Decisione estratta
No. The ongoing complaints were no longer adequately causally related to the accident.
Motivazione estratta
No reliable organically verifiable accident-related correlate explained the complaints. The case was to be assessed under the rules on psychogenic development after accidents because the somatic symptoms were quickly and substantially overlaid by pre-existing psychological problems. The collision was classified as a medium accident at the borderline of a minor one, and none of the relevant adequacy criteria were met in a sufficiently pronounced or cumulative way.
