Excerpt from The Technique of Post-Mortem Examination In the following pages the subject of post-mortem examination has been considered with especial reference to the technique. The systematic and minute consideration of the various appearances and the diagnosis of pathologic changes in the fresh organs has been purposely avoided, and only such general and comprehensive statements have been made in this direction as were necessary to emphasize the value of the various practical details. The little book has been prepared particularly for the guidance of the medical students who frequent the demonstrations in pathologic anatomy given by the author at the Cook County Hospital in Chicago; it is also thought that the total absence in this country of statutory regulations to guide and direct the practitioner in medico-legal cases will serve to extend its usefulness, especially as the subject will be considered somewhat more in detail than is the case in the comprehensive text-books of pathologic anatomy and medical jurisprudence.

Excerpt from Post-Mortem Examinations: Especial Reference to Medico-Legal Practice In the following paper Prof. Virchow gives some account of his early experience as Prosector in the dead-house of the Berlin Charite Hospital, and traces the subsequent development, under his auspices, of a systematic method of conducting post-mortem exami nations. He also criticises, explains, and illustrates the regulations which have been promulgated through out Germany for the guidance of medical jurists in performing autopsies and drawing up reports.

Excerpt from Post-Mortem Examinations When medical men had fewer matters to consider and the content of the sciences was less, more time was given to minor things, among which were terms and words. Perhaps there is no better way of clear ing our thinking than by sharply analyzing our words, so that these minor matters still have their value. I have selected the term postmortem for rather definite reasons, in spite of the fact that others prefer other words, and I must confess some of these sound quite as well. Autopsy, surely the easiest word to speak, has rather too suggestive a meaning - that of seeing one's self. We have seen postmortems where it truly described what oc curred.

Excerpt from Post-Mortem Examinations: Methods and Technique Hands and wounds - When possible the operator at a post-mortem examination should wear rubber gloves. The best kind Of glove is that known as the Veterinary, which is made very thin and of pure rubber, fitting closely to the hand and not interfering a great deal with the sense Of touch. A thicker glove is more commonly chosen on account Of its Cheapness, but With it almost nothing can be ascertained by touch. Any difficulty in drawing on Of the gloves may be overcome by dusting the hand with some dry powder, e.g., violet powder. An Objection to any form Of glove lies in the fact of its becoming very slippery when soiled with blood. Rubber gloves may be worn for a long time if washed free Of Oil or grease after using. If any fat be left on them they rot quickly: soap and warm water will readily free them Of grease. When gloves are not available, some operators protect the hands by coating them with vaseline or Oil of some kind. It is a good plan to examine the hands carefully before entering on an autopsy in order to determine whether any cuts or abrasions exist. These may be present but not visible, but if the hands be exposed to the fumes Of ammonia for a few seconds, the resulting nipping will locate them. In septic cases some such precaution is always advisable. When breaks in the skin are discovered, they should be disinfected with strong tincture of iodine or carbolic acid, and then covered up with collodion or rubber plaster, even though gloves are to be used.

Excerpt from A Compend of Diagnosis in Pathological Anatomy: With Directions for Making Post-Mortem Examinations In the arrangement of the contents, and in the directions for the performance of the autopsy, the new Prussian Regu lations for forensic physicians have been closely adhered to, which prescribe exactly the same method which has long been employed in the Pathological Institute at Berlin. In the sections treating of diagnosis, both gross and microscopic appearances have been described, the latter only so far as they may be verified by an examination of fresh specimens, without entering into details requiring prolonged methods of preparation. Those who desire such information will find the necessary directions in the respective text-books. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
