(2) Board of Health Physicians will certify to such deaths only. as those of persons who, though disabled by recognized disease unre- iated to any form of injury, have died without recent medical at- tendance or whose physician is absent from home when the certificate of death is needed.

(3) Medical examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths supposably due to injury. These inciude not only deaths caused directly or indirectly by traumatism (including resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemical (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agents, and deaths following abortion, but also deaths from disease resulting from injury or infection related to occupation, the sudden deaths of persons not disabled by recognized disease, and those of persons found dead.

CAUSE OF DEATH in plain terms, so that it may be properly classified. Exact statement of OCCUPATION is very N. B .- Every item of information should be carefully supplied. AGE should be stated EXACTLY. PHYSICIANS should stato important. See instructions on back of certificate.

REVISED UNITED STATES STANDARD CERTIFICATE OF DEATH

[Approved by U. S. Census and American Public Health Association]

Statement of occupation .- Precise statement of oceupation is very important, so that the relative healthfulness of various pursuits can be known. The question applies to each and every person, irrespective of age. For many occupations a single word or term on the first line will be sufficient, e. g., Farmer or Planter, Physician, Compos- itor, Architect, Locomotive engineer, Civil engineer, Stationary fireman, etc. But in many cases, especially in industrial employments, it is necessary to know (a) the kind of work and also (b) the nature of the business or industry, and therefore an additional line is provided for the latter statement; it should be used only when needed. As examples: (a) Spinner, (b) Cotton mill; (a) Salesman, (b) Grocery; (a) Foreman, (b) Automobile factory. The ma- terial worked on may form part of the second statement. Never return "Laborer," "Foreman," "Manager," " Dealer," etc., withcut more precise specification, as Day laborer, Farm laborer, Laborer-Coal mine, ete. Women at home, who are engaged in the dutics of the household only (not paid Housekeepers wlio receive a definite salary), may be entered as Housewife, Housework, 02 16 home, and children, not gainfully employed, as At school or At home. Care should be taken to report spe- cifically the occupations of persons engaged in domestic service for wages, as Servant, Cook, Housemaid, ete. If the occupation has been changed or given up on account of the DISEASE CAUSING DEATII, state occupation at beginning of illness. If retired from business, that fact may be indi- cated thus: Farmer (retired, 6 yrs.). For persons who have no occupation whatever, write None.

Statement of cause of death .- Name, first, the DISEASE CAUS- ING DEATHI (the primary affection with respect to time and causation), using always the same accepted term for the same discase. Examples: Cerebrospinal fever (the only definite synonym is "Epidemie cerebrospinal menin- gitis"); Diphtheria (avoid use of "Croup"); Typhoid fever (never report "Typhoid pneumonia"); Lobar pneumonia; Bronchopneumonia ("Pneumonia," unqualified, is indefi- nite) ; Tuberculosis of lungs, meninges, peritonaeum, etc., Car- cinoma, Sarcoma, etc., of - (name origin; “Can- cer" is less definite; avoid use of " Tumor" for malignant neoplasms); Measles; Whooping cough; Chronic valvular heart disease; Chronic interstitial nephritis, etc. The con- tributory (secondary or intercurrent) affection need not be stated unless important. Example : Measles (disease causing death), 29 ds .; Bronchopneumonia (secondary), 10 ds. Never report mere symptoms or terminal condi- tions, such as "Asthenia," "Anaemia" ( merely symptom-

atie), "Atrophy," "Collapse," "Coma," "Convulsions," "Debility" ("Congenital," "Senile," ete.), "Dropsy," "Exhaustion," "Heart failure," "Iaemorrhage," "Inani- tion," "Marasmus," "Old age," "Shock," "Uracmia," "Weakness," ete., when a definite disease can be ascer- tained as the cause. Always qualify all diseases result- ing from childbirth or miscarriage, as "PUERPERAL septi- chaemia," "PUERPERAL peritonitis," ete. State eause for which surgical operation was undertaken. For VIOLENT DEATHS state MEANS OF INJURY and qualify as ACCIDENTAL, SUICIDAL, Or HOMICIDAL, or as probably such, if impossible to determine definitely. Examples: Accidental drowning; Struck by railway train-accident; Revolver wound of head- homicide; Poisoned by carbolic acid-probably suicide. The nature of the injury, as fracture of skull, and consequences (e. g., sepsis, tetanus) may be stated under the head of "Contributory." (Recommendations on statement of cause of death approved by Committee on Nomenclature of the American Medical Association. )

NOTE .- Individual offices may add to above list of undesirable terms and refuse to accept certificates containing them. Thus tho form in use in Now York City states: "Certificates will be returned for additional information which give any of the following diseases, without explanation, as the sole cause of death: Abortion, cellulitis, childbirth, convulsions: haemorrhago, gangrene, gastritis, crysipelas, meningitis, miscarriage, uecrosis, peritonitis, phlebitis, pyaemia, septichaemia, tetanus." But general adoption of tho minimum list suggested will work vast improvement, and its scope can be extended at a later date.

If there is no attending physician, or if, for sufficient reasons, his certificate cannot be obtained early enough for the pur- pose, or is insufficient, a physician who is a member of the board of health, or employed by it or by the selectmen for the purpose, shall upon application make the certificate required of the attending physician. If death is caused by violence, the medical examiner shall make such certificate. . .

These include not only deaths caused directly or indirectly by traumatism (including resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemical (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agents, and deaths following ahortion, but also deaths from disease resulting from injury or infection related to occupation, the sudden deaths of persons not disabled by recognized disease, and those of persons found dead.
