[Noradrenaline and adrenaline concentration in the myocardium of persons who have died suddenly or from injuries].
To investigate mechanisms of sudden death the authors determined the content of noradrenaline and adrenaline in the myocardium of different heart sections in deceased persons by the fluorimetric method; similar studies of the myocardium of persons who died of trauma were conducted. Heterotopia in the noradrenaline content between the cardiac chambers proved to be considerably more pronounced in sudden death than in fatal trauma. The differences in the adrenaline and noradrenaline content in the heart chambers of persons who died of trauma and suddenly indicated the death mechanisms to be different in these cases.
