Abstract

 Anaemia is prevalent in Indian women. Moreover, presence of anaemia is a leading cause of maternal death. The aim of the present study is to evaluate haemoglobin level in postmortem period and assess its utility in anaemic deaths. The material comprised of 10 cadavers with known time of death. All these cases have haemoglobin estimated prior to death. Estimated haemoglobin more than 24 hours prior to death was excluded from the study. These cadavers consist of 10 female with age varied from 20 years to 46 years (mean age 30.3 years). Estimation of haemoglobin in conjugation with blood smear study may give fair idea regarding the status of anaemia in maternal deaths.Up to 3 hours postmortem interval all samples show decrease in haemoglobin content.
