Taphonomy is the science that studies the burial process of living things. The first human taphonomy facility was developed in 1971 by Forensic Anthropologist Dr. William Bass at the University of Tennessee. In addition to better understanding the stages of the human corpse according to various situations, the facilities established for this purpose are also used for the training of law enforcement officers, the development of crime scene techniques and the realization of cadaver dog training. Many experiments related to the corpse and environment are carried out in these research centers and many data about possible situations can be obtained and more realistic inferences and more objective results can be obtained, as a result of which crime scene investigation, autopsy and detection methods are developed. Taphonomy Research Centers provide a controlled examination of the posthumous stages of corpses. In addition, it enables the determination of what changes will occur in the corpse as a result of exposure to various environmental factors, and how long it will be able to benefit from the biological samples to be taken. Rational results can be obtained due to its ability to provide a controlled experiment. Thanks to the data obtained, the development of new crime scene investigation training and techniques also enables the training of cadaver dogs. Since such centers are a constant source of information for scientific research and development, we believe that they should become more widespread.
Giriş: Tıbbi uygulama hatası ile ilgili davaların görülme sıklığı tüm dünyada olduğu gibi ülkemizde de artış göstermektedir. Sağlık çalışanları bu davaların sonucunda cezai yaptırımla birlikte yüksek miktarlarda tazminat ödemeye mahkûm olabilmektedirler. Bu çalışma ile dosyaların özellikleri, bu iddialar ile karşılaşılan hekimler ve bu konuyla ilgili rapor düzenleyen hekimlere bilgi vermek amaçlanmıştır.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
