N2  - When death certificates already completed are submitted during forensic post-mortem examinations or autopsies, blatant errors are often found, especially with regard to the classification of the manner of death. This is partly attributable to insufficient knowledge of the classification criteria, but also to the fact that the post-mortem examination was not properly performed and even clear signs of unnatural death (e.g. a strangulation mark or sharp force injuries) are overlooked. To avoid such misinterpretations, a thorough reformation of the post-mortem examination system and a regular continuing specialized training of the physicians performing post-mortems seem necessary.<p />  <p>Language: de</p>
