[Forensic medical expertise in cases of death resulting from the use of defective self-contained oxygen-breathing gas masks].
In many cases of death from oxygen deficit in an enclosure the development of a pathologic state is adequate to development of high-altitude hypoxia. This fact prompts extrapolation of high-altitude physiology data to such cases and helps calculate the onset of loss of consciousness and death. Methods of such calculations to be used in practical forensic medical expert evaluations are presented.
