Medicolegal Consideration on Emergency Care for the Rape Victim
|
|
|
|
Abstract
|
|
|
The medicolegal aspects of any case must always be secondary to life-saving treatment of patient. This does not mean the forensic aspects must be ignored, for such matters as the taking of blood, saliva or vaginal swabs can be undertaken du-ring emergency treatment, and all wounds and injuries can be described at the same time that treatment is being given.
The examining physician should be guided in this matter by the normal standards of practice in his own area. Similarly, the emergency cases to prevent pregnancy, venereal disease and psychiatric trauma must be considered against the background of normal medical practice in this area.
