Abstract
Objective: To study the response of mouse to postmortem local impact (idiomuscular contracture) with determination of the maximum time of its occurrence.
Material and methods: A device in the form of a metal ruler with applied horizontal metric scale was developed and manufactured in order to standardize the test for idiomuscular contracture. Data of 3480 studies performed on 870 corpses of individuals who died at the age of newborn to 97 years were analyzed.
Results and conclusion: There has been no statistically significant difference in height of the idiomuscular tumor depending on the age of death in any of the studied age groups. It has been established that the death age must be determined in forensic medical examination by qualitative indicators of the idiomuscular contracture, considering the age and general physical condition of the deceased.
