Re-evaluation of death by asphyxia based on cerebral blood flow (VII)--on the information on electric potentials obtained from deep electroencephalographic electrodes.

: The author presents electroencephalographic patterns (a physiological parameter of the brain function observed at rapid and fatal drowning of rabbits), cerebral blood flow (CBF) which support the physiological activities of the brain, and the relationship between systemic respiration and circulation with special reference to changes in the electrical potentials detected by deep electroencephalographic electrodes. The possibility of diagnosis of fatal drowning is examined, based on the results.
