Abstract

Drowning is defined as death from mechanical asphyxia due to the closure of the respiratory tract by a liquid, most often water. As literature data show, drowning has been and remains a serious social problem, since a significant number of people, mostly young people, die from drowning. Forensic medical diagnosis of drowning, as well as other causes of death, is made on the basis of establishing a set of signs detected both during a sectional study and with the help of additional research methods and depending on the type of drowning. This literature review focuses on modern aspects of forensic medical examination of drowning.
