Abstract

In order to study the mental, neurological and EEG changes due to strangulative asphyxia, the authors studied 163 patients who attempted suicide by selfhanging. In the poststrangulative period there was changed consciousness, disorders of memory, emotions, as well as neurological symptoms which eventually had a reversible course. All these data were confirmed by EEG studies. The convened investigation demonstrated a high therapeutical effect of modern resuscitative measures which can be rendered to this contingent of patients.
