Incidents of sudden death during restraint of agitated individuals in Sweden between 1992 and 2024

Journal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Restraint‐related sudden deaths in agitated individuals raise complex questions at the intersection of medicine and law. Hyperactive delirium with extreme agitation as well as positional asphyxia due to restraint have been proposed to account for these deaths. However, the exact physiological mechanisms responsible and to what extent restraint
