Post 12 Final Report

The report shows that he had some good tissue with good blood supply, but also it shows that the tissue has scarring. (myocardial infarction)
Talc was present in the lungs, and is usually mixed with drugs.
Coronary Artery- blockage.
Brain tissue- hemorrhage (stroke)

We believe that the 60 year old, Caucasian, died because:

While he was at the party, he could of been drinking coffee. Which, in the autopsy report, showed that he had tons of caffeine in his system. That, can speed up the heart rate. He already had high blood pressure. Cocaine was also in his system, It speeds up heart rate and blood pressure as well as constricting blood vessels. It seemed to be a first time use, and the first time is the most rapid which can cause damage to the cardiac and respiratory systems. The guests at the party said he went into cardiac arrest. I believe the reason for his death is because of his heart had been through too much, due to the drugs, alcohol, and caffeine and gave out.

Final Report

Caleb and Emily

Case Number: 55269m

Sex: Male Age: 60 Race: Caucasian

Height: 5' 113/4" Weight: 180 punds

Time of Death: 8/27/2008 06:10 am

Summary of Gross Descriptions:

He had a red rash covering most of his ventral side, covering his abdomen and some of his lower chest.Both right and left lungs where a little heavy possibly from smoking. There was also granules from talcum witch is a metal found in most illicit drugs. His brain was abnormal probably cause by a massive hemorrage in the brain. the heart was a little heave due to the blockage in the coronary artery causing the hear to pump faster and gain muscle weight. There are also scars from a past heart attack.

Summary of Lab Reports:

blood taken from a vein in his arm, his results where as follows:

Ethanol- 0.17G% Cotinine-Positive Lidocaine-Positive Atroping-Positive Cocaine-trace amounts

Ethylbenzoylecgonine-012ng/mL Benzoylecgonine-0.36ng/mL Ecgonine Methyl Ester-Positive

Opiate-Negative Cannabionoids-Negative Benzodiazepines- Negative Metoprolol-0.33ng/mL

Caffine-Positive

Urine sample taken while still alive, results are as follows:

Nicotine-Positive Cotinine-Positive Lidocain-Not detected Atropine-Not detected

Cocaine-Positive Ethylbenzoylecgonine-Positive Benzoylecgonine- Positive .

Ecgonine Methyl Ester-Positive Opiate-Negative Cannabionoids-Negative

Benzodiazepines- Negative Metoprolol-Positive

Caffine-Positive

Conclusion:

In finding trace amounts of cocaine in his blood we conclude that he was a cocaine addict and in finding that he tested positive for cocaine in his urine shows that he had used not to long before admittance to the hospital so we conclude that he dies from taking large amounts of cocaine with then cause his brain to hemorrage leaving him brain dead witch in turn was later pronounced dead by medical doctors on the 27th of August 2008 at 06:10am

Your Final Autopsy Report guidelines are found in your booklet on pages 52 & 53.  Use these guidelines to formally present your findings.  You may use Google Docs or other word software to write your paper.  Please post a link to your paper on this blog.  Please do not post the entire paper, a link will do just fine. Make sure to use a professional writing style, not an informal writing style.

Dent Post #11 Histology Report

The last nine pages in your autopsy book refer to the histology report.  Notice that several reference slides are presented so that you have something to compare the real slides to.  The real slides will have a case number on them.  Compare the reference slides and the case number slides to help determine what you thought might have caused death. Keep this information in mind when you are forming your Final Autopsy Report.
