摘要:
Patterns of traumatic injuries due to fall from height certainly have an association with the amount of impact involved. A study of 63 medicolegal autopsies with the history of falls has been carried out during the period January 1974-July 1980. The injuries found were caused either by the direct impact, i.e., at the site of impact, or in a region distant from the site of impact of force as a result of transmitted force or indirect force. An attempt has been made to evaluate, generalize and correlate the characteristic pattern of the injuries to the various parts of the body with respect to various heights of fall. Stress has also been laid on the mechanism of production of these injuries in order to create a composite picture to help determine the most likely traumatic force in falls from height.
