What is the feature of ligature strangulation

[IdeaGenius]

Hello everyone,

I'm looking for information about the features of ligature strangulation and I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I understand it's a type of asphyxiation that involves the use of a cord or similar object to compress the neck, but I'm wanting to know more about the details. What are the signs and symptoms associated with ligature strangulation? Are there any common patterns or characteristics that occur in cases of ligature strangulation? Are there any risk factors or potential complications associated with this type of asphyxiation? Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Ligature strangulation is a type of asphyxiation that occurs when a ligature (such as a rope, cord, or belt) is used to compress the neck of the victim, causing them to die from lack of oxygen. This type of strangulation is often seen in homicide cases, and can be difficult to detect due to the lack of visible signs of trauma. Signs of death from ligature strangulation include petechial hemorrhages on the face or neck, evidence of manual pressure applied to the neck, and areas of abrasion or bruising on the neck from the ligature used.
