将致命性高压伤害作为一种技术、人为和自然现象，在人体与电力相互作用的背景下，提出了一个尚未得到充分研究的问题。回顾了41年(1965-2006年)291例高压致死病例的法医学记录。采用SPSS11.0软件进行描述性统计分析。死者最常见的死亡原因是与输电和配电网元件接触：(41.24%)，闪电作用：(32.3%)，两者的相对比例差异不大。更罕见的是，死亡是由于接触建筑和维修电气设备：(7.56%)，或电力运输铁路基础设施的部件：(6.87%)。因接触农用电器引起的死亡仅为偶发性：(0.68%)。受害者的平均年龄为36.19岁。我们的分析表明，受害者的相对份额(43.98%)在25岁至44岁的年龄段最高。男女比例为1：21.38。(C)2008年爱思唯尔有限公司和ISBI。版权所有。
Fatal high-voltage injuries present a problem which has not yet been studied sufficiently in the context of interaction between the human body and electricity, as a technical, anthropogenic and natural phenomenon.The forensic medicine records of 291 cases of death caused by high-voltage current for a 41-year-long period (1965-2006) were examined in retrospect. The descriptive statistical analyses were made using the SPSS 11.0 software. Death was found to result most commonly from contact between the deceased and elements of the power transmission and distribution grid: (41.24%), and from the action of lightning: (32.3%), the difference in their relative share being insignificant. Much more rarely, death was due to contact with construction and repair electrical devices: (7.56%), or with elements of the power transport railway infrastructure: (6.87%). Death resulting from contact with agricultural electrical devices was only occasional: (0.68%). The victims' average age was 36.19 years. Our analysis indicates that the relative share (43.98%) of the victims is the highest in the age period between 25 and 44. The ratio between women and men is 1:21.38. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd and ISBI.
