Your skin starts going through some changes after 24 hours <span>Nature is very efficient at breaking down human corpses. When you die your heart stops pumping blood around your body, thus depriving your cells of oxygen, which rapidly begin to die. Decomposing starts almost immediately, with the skin going through several changes in colour as the blood stops circulating leaving the body an ashen color. However different cells die at different rates. For example, brain cells die within a few minutes, whilst skin cells can survive over 24 hours after death. Soon after death rigor mortis occurs, which is caused by a complex chemical reaction (involving lactic acid and myosin), which forms a gel like substance which creates the body's stiffness. Rigor mortis lasts approximately 24 hours (depending upon ambient temperature). </span>

worty [1.4K]

The hospital or medical group practice owns the medical records of the patient. Although the physician created the original medical record, this does not mean that the said physician owns the medical record of the patient. Instead, it must belong to the hospital because they are the ones who prepare them.


In addition to this, according to the HIPAA privacy rule, the patient can inspect, review and receive a copy of his/her own medical record but it the said ownership goes to the hospital.
