Wood, M.
J. & Guha, A. K. (2001). Declining clinical |
autopsy
rates versus increasing medicolegal autopsy rates
in Halifax, Nova Scotia: Why the difference? A historical
perspective. Archives of Pathology & Laboratory
Medicine, 125 (7), 924-930. Retrieved July 2,
2002, from ProQuest database.
- A retrospective
review of autopsy data over a 13-year period from
the Queen Elizabeth II Health Sciences Centre in
Halifax, Nova Scotia, and from the Office of the
Chief Medical Examiner of Nova Scotia was conducted.
This review showed a difference between the rates
of clinical and medicolegal autopsies for the metro
Halifax area. The clinical autopsy rate was consistently
less than 30% and declined to 15% in 1999, while
the medico-legal autopsy rate was consistently greater
than 40% and rose to 62% in 1999. The literature
proposes many reasons for the decline in the clinical
autopsy rate, but none for this difference between
rates. The explanation proposed here is the changing
and currently uncertain purpose of the clinical
autopsy versus the clear, and consistent over time,
purpose of the medicolegal autopsy.
