Injury characteristics of human body under Taser attack:a review
Non-lethal electric shock devices such as Taser have been widely used by military and police agencies worldwide.Taser can temporarily incapacitate human body mainly through discharge on skeletal muscle,while causing injuries to the tissues and organs such as the heart,skeletal muscle,blood vessel,eyeball,brain,bone and neuropsychiatric behavioral disorders through direct or indirect effects of electrical discharge,mechanical puncture,burning and infection.Though Taser has been introduced into China,there have been few studies about the damage to human body caused by Taser and no relevant systematic medical reviews have been found.However,an overall understanding of the characteristics of Taser injuries to human body is of great significance in reducing the disability and mortality rates caused by Taser as well as treating the injuries.To this end,the authors reviewed the research progress on human body injuries caused by Taser from the characteristics of Taser and the types and features of Taser injuries,aiming to provide references for the diagnosis and treatment of injuries caused by Taser.
