17
Q

Type of death when ALL VITAL ORGAN CEASE to function.

A

Physiologic Death

18
Q

Its exact occurrence cannot be definitely ascertained because its time of appearance is INFLUENCED BY SEVERAL FACTORS like previous state of health, infection, climatic condition, cellular nutrition, etc.

A

Molecular or Cellular Death

19
Q

  1. Palpation of the Pulse
  2. Auscultation for the Heart Sound at the Precordial Area
  3. Fluoroscopic Examination
  4. By the Use of Electrocardiograph
23
Q

Pulsation of the peripheral blood vessels may be made at the region of the WRIST OR AT THE NECK

A

Palpation of the Pulse

24
Q

The pulsation of the vessels is SYNCHRONOUS WITH THE HEARTBEAT

A

Palpation of the Pulse

25
Q

The rhythmic contraction and RELAXATION OF THE HEART IS AUDIBLE through the stethoscope.

A

Auscultation for the Heart Sound at the Precordial Area

26
Q

HEART SOUND CAN BE AUDIBLE during life even
without the aid of a stethoscope by placing the ear at the precordial area.

A

Auscultation for the Heart Sound at the Precordial Area

27
Q

reveal the SHADOW OF THE HEART in its rhythmic contraction and relaxation.

A

Fluoroscopic Examination

28
Q

The SHADOW MAY BE ENLARGED and the excursion made less visible due to pericardial
effusion.

A

Fluoroscopic Examination

28
Q

electrocardiograph machine.

A

By the Use of Electrocardiograph

29
Q

The _________ will RECORD THE HEART BEAT even if it is too weak to be heard by auscultation

A

By the Use of Electrocardiograph

30
Q

This is the BEST METHOD OF DETERMINING HEART ACTION but quite impractical.

A

By the Use of Electrocardiograph

31
Q

Examination of the Peripheral Circulation:

A
  1. Magnus’ Test
  2. Opening of Small Artery
  3. Icard’s Test

32
Q

A ligature is applied around the base of a FINGER WITH MODERATE TIGHTNESS

A

Magnus’ Test

33
Q

If the ligature is applied to the FINGER OF A DEAD MAN, there is no such change in color.

Magnus’ Test

34
Q

(LIVING) the blood ESCAPES IN JERK and at a distance.

Opening of Small Artery

35
Q

(DEAD) the blood vessel is white and there is NO JERKING ESCAPE of blood but may only ooze towards
the nearby skin.

35
Q

This consists of the INJECTION OF A SOLUTION of fluorescein subcutaneously.

A

A

Diaphanous Test

40
Q

Living: the finger webs appear red
Dead: yellow

A

Diaphanous Test

41
Q

there will be BLISTER FORMATION, congestion, and other vital reactions of the injured area will be observed.

A

Application of Heat on the Skin

42
Q

Dead: will NOT PRODUCE TRUE BLISTER, no sign of congestion, or other vital reactions.

A

Application of Heat on the Skin

43
Q

Living: will FEEL THE RHYTHMIC PULSATION of the vessel due to the flow of blood.
Dead: No such pulsation will be observed

A

Palpation of the Radial Pulse with Fingers

44
Q

Like heart action, cessation of respiration in order to be considered as a sign of DEATH MUST BE CONTINUOUS AND PERSISTENT

A

Stoppage of Respiration

45
Q

A person can hold his breath for a period not longer than?
