Validation of an in-house Dutch Forensic Death Coding system (FDC) #researchawards #fosawards
The study focuses on the validation of an in-house Dutch Forensic Death Coding (FDC) system designed to improve the classification, documentation, and interpretation of causes of death in forensic medicine. This system provides a standardized framework to enhance accuracy, consistency, and efficiency in forensic death investigations, bridging the gap between clinical coding standards and forensic practice. The validation process involved assessing reliability, reproducibility, and applicability across diverse forensic cases, ensuring that the FDC system can serve as a robust tool for epidemiological research, mortality statistics, and public health surveillance. Ultimately, the FDC system strengthens the scientific and legal value of forensic autopsies by providing a uniform coding method tailored to forensic settings.
