Among 30 so-called accessory respiratory and other muscles tested, the presence of rhythmic respiratory impulses was found in 12. Both expiratory and inspiratory impulses were detected in certain muscles, in others only in- or expiratory ones. The muscles with most frequent inspiratory impulses were the intercartilaginous intercostal muscles, the intrinsic muscle of the larynx and the nostril; those with expiratory impulses were abdominis, external and internal oblique, transversus abdominis, scalenus anterior, and lower interosseous intercostal muscles.

The postmortem diagnosis of drowning death and understanding the mechanisms leading to drowning require a comprehensive judgment based on numerous morphological findings in order to determine the pathogenesis and epidemiological characteristics of the findings. Effortful breathing during the drowning process can result in intramuscular hemorrhage in respiratory and accessory respiratory muscles. However, the characteristics of this phenomenon have not been investigated. We analyzed the epidemiological characteristics of 145 cases diagnosed as drowning, in which hemorrhage, not due to trauma, was found in the respiratory muscles and accessory respiratory muscles. Hemorrhage was observed in 31.7% of these cases, and the incidence did not differ by gender or drowning location. The frequency of hemorrhage was significantly higher in months with a mean temperature below 20°C than in months above 20°C, suggesting a relationship between the occurrence of hemorrhage and low environmental temperature. Moreover, the frequency of hemorrhage was significantly higher in the elderly (aged ≥65 years) compared to those <65 years old. In the elderly, the weakening of muscles due to aging may contribute to the susceptibility for intramuscular hemorrhage. Moreover, these intramuscular hemorrhages do not need to be considered in cases of a potential bleeding tendency due to disease such as cirrhosis or medication such as anticoagulants. Our results indicate that intramuscular hemorrhage in respiratory and accessory respiratory muscles can serve as an additional criterion to differentiate between fatal drowning and other causes of death, as long as no cutaneous or subcutaneous hematomas above the muscles with hemorrhages are observed. In addition, the epidemiological features that such intramuscular hemorrhage is more common in cold environments and in the elderly may provide useful information for the differentiation.

Bipolar electromyographic (EMG) recordings were made from six chest wall and nasal sites with disk electrodes attached to the skin. Electrode locations were based on previous studies of nonspeech breathing and were designed to sample the activity of both primary and accessory respiratory muscles. EMG activity was sampled while subjects performed a series of speech and nonspeeeh tasks. The results revealed that surface electrodes could sample the activity of respiratory muscles during speech and other ventilatory tasks, particularly during the expiratory phases of the breathing cycle.
