RULES OF PRACTICE
The fulfillment of the purpose of these laws calls for the observance of the following rules of practice :
(1) Attending physicians will certify to such deaths only as those of persons to whom they have given bedside care during a last illness from disease unrelated to any form of injury.
(2) Board of Health physlolans will certify to such deaths only aa those of persons wbo, though disabled by recognized disease unrelated to any form of injury, have died without recent medical attendance or whose pbysi- cian is absent from home when the certificate of death is needed.
(3) Medical Examiners will investigate and certify to all deaths sup- posably due to Injury. These include not only deaths caused directly or In- directly by traumatism (including resulting septicemia), and by the action of chemical (drugs or poisons), thermal, or electrical agents, and deaths following abortion, but also desths from disease resulting from Injury or Infeotion related to occupation, the sudden deaths of persons not disabled by recognized disease, and those of persons found dead.
STATEMENT OF CAUSE OF DEATH
Medical Examiners in certifying to a death will state the cause and manner thereof, and will specify: (1) Under cause, the nature of an injury aud of ita consequences; and (2) under manner, the mode of its production together with the circumstances when these are known. For example: "Com- pound fracture of the femur with ensuing septicemia (gaa bacillus) caused hy a steam railway accident." "Pistol shot wound of the chest with asso- ciated hemorrhage, homicidal." "Asphyxiation by suspension, auicidal." "Syncope while under the influence of ether adininistered as a aurgical anaesthetic." "Fracture of the skull with associated internal injury sus- tained under circutitstances unkuown."
If disease or injury was related to occupation, specify. If investigation shows the death to have been due to disease, specify : (1) Under cause its known or presumahle nature; and (2) under manner, indicate the circum- stancea leading to medico-legal inquiry. For example: "Hemorrhage spon- taneous of the brain (hasal ganglia ) (found dead in bed)." "Heart disease, presumably coronary sclerosis. (Sullilett death. )"
DESCRIPTION (for unknown person)
NOTICE TO UNDERTAKERS: No embalming fluid, or any substitute therefor, shall be injected into the body of any person supposed to have met his death by violence, until a permit, signed by the Medical Examiner, has first been obtained .- General Laws, Chap. 38, Sec. 14.
