Abstract:
In order to evaluate the diagnostic value of determing the serum strotium levelfor the drowning diagnosis,we carried out this study.The results of our expe-rirnental study are summarized as follows:(1).The blood Sr level determinationcould be used as a confirmatory test of drowning merely at the early stage(wi-thin 5 min)of drowning;(2).It could give some help for diagnosing the case ofdrowning submerged in water within 24 hours.It was showed that the durationof submersion has influence upon the postmortem blood Sr level.The blood Srlevel was measured in two submerged cases in medico-legal practice.One died ofdrowning and the another was postmortem sbmersion after electrocusion.It is inter-esting that the results of blood Sr determination of human being were more acc-urate than experimental animals.Therefore,we consider that the further studyabout this project is required.
