This view does not cover all cases in which medicine and its various fields come to the aid of the law. The essential purpose of legislation is the happiness of people, in civil life, in private life, one feels the immensity of the relationship that arises between jurisprudence and medicine. Knowledge of law and medicine is better when it`s known together, so it`s the same in law as it is in medicine, Tiraqueau said. An axiom of common law in all centuries is to call upon experts from all fields to obtain their opinions, as the case may be. Experts in any art are to be believed (August. Barbosa); And legislators themselves have often expressed this opinion as a legal or judgmental ground. This is the law of the seven months of the state of man: by the authority of the learned Hippocrates. promote training in forensic pathology and science through regular educational activities, scientific conferences and workshops; Evidence collection protocols vary from one province or territory to another. The following discussion is based on the model protocol proposed by the State of California and the American College of Emergency Physicians Handbook.3 Emergency clinical forensics is the application of forensic knowledge, techniques, and procedures to the treatment of patients living in the emergency room (ED).1 This is an important link through which patients or victims of abuse may be called upon to take action against them. Emergency physicians are in a unique position to be the first point of contact for most of these patients and play a vital role in this process. Clinicians also have the most contact with law enforcement agencies and are therefore well placed to help preserve evidence.2 However, many emergency clinicians have limited training in clinical forensic medicine, so important information or data may be overlooked during these interactions.1 The formal organization of forensic pathology and forensic experts varies somewhat from country to country.
to the other. In Central Europe, for example, forensic experts are recruited by a university, as this is believed to guarantee a scientific basis, independence and impartiality. In Sweden and Finland, a national government agency is responsible for administering forensic pathology services, while in the United States, Canada and some other Anglo-Saxon countries, various systems are used under the generic terms “coroner`s system” and “forensic pathologist`s system”, which are not always easily distinguishable.

If we follow these principles, we see the disadvantage that exists in allowing indiscriminately the preparation of reports that all men practice one of the parts of medicine. In fact, a distinction is made between physicians, surgeons and pharmacists who are ordained or professed by societies and receive masterpieces from those who have only different opinion titles or habits of practice. All artists admitted and adopted by a society should have provided sufficient evidence of their ability, and this presumption may not be appropriate for those who are not admitted. We even see in the bodies different classes of artists whose capacity is not the same. Surgeons distinguish masters obtained by masterpieces or repeated examinations, the knowledge of which is recognized to extend to all surgical cases; The others are received on light experience and are intended mainly for small places, they are examined only for form, and the letters sent to them ask them to call a master of the community to give his advice in decisive operations to the pain of an unnecessary person.
It is obvious, says the same Mr. Verdier that these artists do not have the experience required by law for the preparation of reports. Chao TC. The sixth K Prathap Memorial Lecture. Forensics: changing roles for future challenges. Malaysian J Pathol. 1991;13(1):1-4. Emergency medical programs have identified and described the need for forensic training in their programs. The American College of Emergency Physicians established the Division of Forensic Pathology in 2006 to provide emergency clinicians with additional forensic resources and training. Unfortunately, there is currently no formal training program. In contrast, the Royal College of Physicians in the United Kingdom established the Faculty of Forensic and Legal Medicine (FFLM) in 2006 as the authoritative body for clinical forensic pathology in the United Kingdom.
The FFLM has created training and certification programmes and certification examinations for UK doctors after 2 years of forensic practice.4 There is no point in stopping the right to pay and the “legal action” of those who practice medicine and the various branches against poorly recognised or overly economical details. Physicians are rarely outraged by such litigation by the courts; and it is right that the usefulness of their profession may be called “honour,” which he sincerely accepts; And that he would be ashamed to ask. In this sense, surgeons and pharmacists more often use the procedure of a process; And it is precisely for the estimation of his briefs that the judge sometimes calls an expert for help. Representation of the special interests of forensic pathology and forensics in medical and governmental settings; Forensics has a long and famous history in the UK. As early as 1807, the University of Edinburgh had a chair of forensic medicine and the University of Glasgow created a similar post in 1839. In 1834, Alfred Taylor was appointed professor of medical jurisprudence at Guy`s Hospital in London and published his English Elements of Medical Jurisprudence 2 years later. Although medical evidence was first presented at a murder trial in 1859, it was not until 1900 that Dr. Luff, Dr. Wilcox and Dr. Pepper of St.
Mary`s Hospital in Paddington were appointed the Home Office`s first medical experts. There are a number of important ways to fill this gap through training and exposure to emergency clinical forensics. Forensic examinations must be conducted with the consent of the patient, guardian or court, or with implied consent. The assessment should include medical history and physical examination, documenting all wounds and describing them in as much detail as possible, as well as photographs and anatomical diagrams.1 Even simple findings such as bruising or associated bruising can provide important clues as to how the injury was sustained5 and be invaluable for future legal proceedings. Assessments of gunshot and stab wounds, physical or sexual abuse, domestic violence and motor vehicle trauma should also be adequately documented so that they can be used as evidence. Documentation should include digital photographs as well as a narrative and diagrams. Forensic medicine is medicine applied to the problems of the law. The origins of both are hidden in the mists of antiquity and date back to the beginnings of family and tribal life. The recorded history of mankind goes back 6000 years. Sumer, Babylon and Egypt all contributed to the development of forensic medicine. Imhotep was probably the first true forensic expert. Hippocrates, the Greek physician, and Galen, the Roman, made considerable contributions.
Little progress was made during the millennium of the Middle Ages. But Renaissance medicine gave impetus to this branch of medicine in the seventeenth, eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and in the twentieth century interest in forensic medicine was worldwide. The physician, coroner, pathologist, medical specialist and forensic laboratory contribute to the investigation of crimes against the person and the resolution of problems such as identification, unwanted deaths, obvious drownings and many others. This agreement, confirmed by custom and authority by orders, is decent to warn against the abuses that often take place in small places where inexperienced surgeons, where presumption takes the place of science, interfere in the preparation of reports on thousands of items of which they know nothing. Because in large cities it is quite common to find that the diversity and understanding of knowledge leaves nothing to be desired, and which is often decent to rehabilitate less experienced and overconfident doctors. It is also in these cities that we find pharmacists who leave the circle of their pharmaceutical practice, directing their attention and work towards objects of transcendent chemistry, which elevate them far above what doctors have in common. These artists are the masters whose opinion is respectable and must include voting, but this resource is not common, and the law must extend its influence to all inhabited places. Michaelis Bernard.

Exemptions for young people, renunciation of meat and certain religious duties also apply to medicine if it can be justified by disability or other similar reasons. This is also the case when the doctor is consulted on the compatibility of constitutions with certain religious States, such as those of the hermit or the cloistered State; It has even been asked whether these are the constitutions for which abstinence is impossible.
