What the latest embalming procedure and technique?

Embalming is essential been the same since around the American Civil War. An artery is opened in the deceased's body, and embalming fluid is pumped into it. The pressure causes blood to drain concurrently from an open vein.\nIn addition, the hollow organs and viscera have their contents removed with t tube-like instrument and some sort of suction device. A strong embalming fluid is then put into the cavities to retard decomposition.\nMost improvements have involved improved embalming chemicals. Embalmers no longer have to mix their own fluids, dyes are often included in the arterial fluids, and the most dangerous chemicals are no longer used. In additions, several items have been invented that allow exposed tissues to be dried out, which allows for fillers or waxes to be used to recreate a natural appearance on someone who may have experienced trauma. \nSeveral items have been developed in the last few decades that help create a natural shape to a person's eyes and mouth. For instance, plastic caps have been developed that help keep eyelids closed as the tissues dry out a little bit. Also, many innovations for embalming machines have developed that allow for precise pressure and rate of flow during injection. This is helpful to reduce swelling.\nFinally, techniques have been developed that allow a deceased person to be a full bone and tissue donor, and still look nice for his/her viewing. For instance, PVC pipes can be used to hold the shape of limbs instead of long bones.

At least one technique is "drawing and Quartering'. This was a technique inspired by the Europeons, ironnicly. It invloves disemboling the victim while they still live and setting the intestines on fire as they watch. The eurpoeans would then cut the body to pieces, but the vietcong often saw higher value in leaving a recognizble corpse.\n\nBeheading also occured, altough the North Vietnamses regulars were fond of simply shooting thier victims by firing squad.

Finally, a believer!\n\nI have extensive plans to pass new legislation that will require all new coffins to be air tight and be filled with cement, thus holding the zombie hoard inside of their resting places. Older graves will also be safeguarded with injected cement.\n\nI believe there will come a day when we can all live without fences.

Autopsy's are performed by the coroner.  You'd have to contact the coroner's office and ask what their procedures were.

From what I have found (which wasn't much) it seems to be a surgical procedure.  I will add the sites I have looked at but the are very technical and aimed at surgeons.\nI hope they will be of some help to you.

1. Count the candles on their birthday cake.\n2. Look at their Drivers lisc. card\n3. Ask them\n\nSeriously; There are a number of anthropoligical and forensic techniques, but it is complicated. First; are you talking about living or dead person? Second; if dead do we have a corpse or a skeleton?\n\nIt is easy to determine the age of a neonate from an older infant and an infant from a toddler. The size, fusion of the cranial bones and the eruption of primary teeth follows well known progressions. This assumes normal develpment of course, free of disease, trauma and malnutririon. The loss of thymus mass is well known in the teenager. There is just to much to tell here.

When the person is to be cremated, we always bathe the body and either dress is in clothes that the family brought in or in a clean hospital gown.  We do this out of respect for the deceased.  Embalming is not required by any state laws, however it is necessary for a public visitation.  And yes, we undress and bathe the body during the embalming process.  We apply cosmetics to make them look natural and not so pale.  Hope this helps, take care!

I doubt that this is still practiced.  Most coffins now are metal; Orthodox Jews use wood, but metal is not permitted.  Years ago when coffins were made of wood, the cover would be nailed to prevent accidental opening during transit, potentially exposing contents.

Instead of surgury a new recent method has come up in which a deflated balloon is inserted in thru the nose and then it is inflated to open up the vent/duct.Find more from your Dr.

The history of embalming - start with Egyptians (or further back) - you know, mummies, canopic jars, and the like - move to modern times - go to a local funeral home and ask for a tour (I'm totally serious - they don't get serious enquiries often, so they will usually comply if they know you are serious).\nOr if your goal is to WIN the science fair, go with something in the psychology area (left brain/right brain differences maybe)- questionnaires, skills tests, and such.  You can enlist your family's help with all the "field work," and since very few people enter in this category, you're a likely winner!

They have done it with hands, but there are psychological factors that make it difficult for most people.  Patients have a hard time accepting that they have a dead person's body parts on them. Internal organs are a little different.  Looking at a different leg or hand all the time is difficult for the minds of most.  Also, the timing has to be perfect.  You cant just do that with someone who lost their leg 2 months ago.
