METHOD rapid diagnosis DEADLY carbon monoxide poisoning

摘要

FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves examining light-reflecting ability of livores mortis and a skin area free of them (background). The surface under study is isolated from surrounding light action, illuminated with laser radiation and light-reflecting ability of livores mortis is recorded in comparison to white skin area. Reflection coefficient values being equal to 66±4,7% in livores mortis zone, carbon monoxide poisoning diagnosis is to be set. EFFECT: high accuracy of the method in applying external examination of cadaver. 4 cl
