A new electronic dissection register was developed for legal medicine to streamline autopsy data collection. This system allows for rapid recording of post-mortem findings, simplifying data management for coroners.

Area of Science:

  • Forensic pathology
  • Medical informatics

Context:

  • Traditional dissection registers in legal medicine are complex and time-consuming.
  • Previous attempts to create comprehensive registers have been hindered by the complexity of post-mortem findings.

Purpose:

  • To develop an electronic data processing system for efficient autopsy result collection.
  • To create a user-friendly database for legal medicine casework.

Summary:

  • A database program was developed using "dBase" personal computer software.
  • The system utilizes forms for case circumstances and essential post-mortem findings.
  • Short codes facilitate rapid data entry and statistical evaluation, with results recorded in under 10 minutes.

Impact:
