Abstract
The article highlights the medical and social patterns of death due to drowning. The purpose of the study is to identify the medical and social characteristics of death as a result of mechanical asphyxia due to the closure of the airways with water during drowning. To achieve this goal, a retrospective analysis of drowning cases in the Zavodsky and Leninsky districts of Minsk for 2021–2023 was carried out by studying 28 reports of forensic medical examinations of corpses conducted on the basis of the general examination department No. 1 of the department of the State Forensic Examinations Committee of the Republic of Belarus in the city of Minsk. Based on the results of the study, a medical and social portrait of a person who died as a result of drowning was created. The identified patterns can be used to update measures to prevent death from this type of mechanical asphyxia.
