How was the autopsy done, how the ancients performed the autopsy

Legal analysis: The public security can come out within 48 hours. Autopsies are usually available in about seven days.

The autopsy is carried out by the relevant identification agency commissioned by the traffic team, mainly to determine the cause of death. The law stipulates that an autopsy should be commissioned within three days of death, and is generally completed within 20 days, with a maximum of 60 days.

Legal basis: Article 10 of the Measures for the Handling of Medical Accidents stipulates that "where a medical accident or incident occurs and the cause of death cannot be determined by clinical diagnosis, an autopsy must be conducted where conditions permit." The autopsy shall be conducted within 48 hours of death by the pathological and autopsy technicians of the hospital designated by the administrative department of health, and local forensic doctors shall be invited to participate if conditions permit.

If the medical unit or the patient's family refuses to conduct an autopsy, or delays the autopsy for more than 48 hours, affecting the determination of the cause of death, the party who refuses or delays shall be responsible."

1. The ancients summed up a lot of post-mortem experience based on long-term practice. In ancient China, there was no anatomy, and the cause of death and modus operandi were generally judged by observing the appearance of corpses, such as tongues, corpse spots, and scars.

2. In ancient times, judicial personnel would prepare vinegar, green onions, Sichuan peppers, salt, plums, etc. in advance for autopsy. Because after death, the person will generally be blue, and it is not easy to identify the wound, so as long as the suspicious part is sprinkled with water, the green onion is mashed and applied to the wound, and then covered with paper dipped in vinegar for about an hour, and the wound is revealed. If the body is blue and black, use the drip method.

Water drips on the wound and stagnates; The intact ** is softer and the water will flow away automatically.

3. Examine the corpse wound or bone wound, if you can't see the scar, first wash the whole body with bad vinegar, and then carry it to the open air, and look at the freshly oiled silk or umbrella in the sun, and you can find the wound. On rainy days, charcoal fires are lit, and the same effect is achieved through the illumination. If none of the above methods work, the white plum is mashed together with green onions, Sichuan peppers, and salt, and made into cakes and baked on the fire skin Qi Xiao.

Then stick a piece of paper on the place to be inspected, iron the white plum cake back and forth, and the scars will be visible.

In ancient times, the autopsy was called a work.

Zuo: In the old days, the government inspected the dead body, because it was very hard to check the corpse, and the ancient feudal ideology was serious, so it was generally examined by the untouchables or slaves when the corpse was examined and reported to the person, which was equivalent to the ancient forensic doctor. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, it was renamed as an inspection or officer, and it was still used in the Beiyang ** period.

In ancient times, it was one of the 36 lines, called "仵作行". In fact, the examination of injuries is mainly the examination of the body of an unnatural death, and the examination of the cause of death is similar to the later forensic repentance. But strictly speaking, there is a difference between the practice and today's forensics.

The "officials" are generally of a very humble origin (before the proclamation of unification, the descendants of the servants were not even allowed to participate in the imperial examinations). After the appearance of a criminal case, the coroner and the coroner have to go together, but the coroner actually does not do anything, but relies on the corpse to rummage through the corpse, and if he sees something, he reports it to the coroner, and finally the coroner writes the report and is responsible for the autopsy report. Today's forensics are a combination of the two.
