Uncharacteristic soft tissue injuries detectable in cases of death from general accidental hypothermia

Diagnosis of death from hypothermia requires a comprehensive approach, including inspection of the accident site (place of the corpse's discovery), analysis of history, external examination, forensic investigation, histological examination, as well as toxicological and other laboratory tests. Only a comprehensive analysis of all the data allows to establish the exact cause of death and exclude other factors. The mechanisms of human behavior in cooling are complex and require further research, including the study of neurochemical processes occurring in the brain under critical hypothermia.

Abstract

Diagnosis of death from hypothermia requires a comprehensive approach, including inspection of the accident site (place of the corpse's discovery), analysis of history, external examination, forensic investigation, histological examination, as well as toxicological and other laboratory tests. Only a comprehensive analysis of all the data allows to establish the exact cause of death and exclude other factors. The mechanisms of human behavior in cooling are complex and require further research, including the study of neurochemical processes occurring in the brain under critical hypothermia.
