Résumé

The diagnosis of drowning is an important issue in forensic investigations. Moreover, discriminating between seawater and freshwater drowning is crucial to identify where the drowning occurred. The present study aimed to investigate electrolyte concentrations in pleural fluid in decomposed bodies in late postmortem intervals and derive cut-off values for the diagnosis of seawater and freshwater drowning. Data were collected from 44 seawater drowning cases, 60 freshwater drowning cases, and 30 non-drowning cases with pleural effusion which served as controls. The levels of sodium ion (Na The receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed that the sensitivity and specificity were both 1.000 for SUM The electrolyte concentrations in pleural effusion may be useful for the diagnosis of drowning in decomposed bodies with a longer postmortem interval.
