Forensic Medical Assessment and Statistical Analysis of Mechanical Asphixia

Abstract

Drowning is an accident. In this case, breathing and cardiac activity are seriously impaired as a result of the airways being filled with liquid (usually water) or liquid masses (mud, mud). Drowning usually occurs when bathing in large bodies of water or for some reason. Even a good swimmer (if he does not follow the rules of bathing and does not take precautions) can drown. Fatigue after swimming for a long distance, as well as an injury when throwing a head (hitting the head on a rock or something hard) can cause drowning. A person who throws a head (throwing a head if he does not know the technique) due to hitting the surface of the water, he will hit the neck, eyes, groin area, which will cause him to faint. Hitting the head on the bottom of the pool poses a risk of breaking the vertebrae of the neck. Drunkenness can also cause drowning, a drunk person can't control himself and violates the rules of bathing. In addition, he can get cold and pass out because he feels bad about the cold. as a result, when the temperature changes sharply, when the stomach is full of food, when the digestion of food accelerates, and when the person is afraid of falling into the water, fainting is observed.
