Introduction: Occupational safety and health (OSH) is a crucial issue in the medical laboratory environment, considering the potential for exposure to various biological and chemical risks. The proper use of personal protective equipment (PPE) is one of the main pillars in mitigating this risk. Understanding the medicolegal implications related to the use of PPE is an important aspect that can influence laboratory staff compliance. This study aims to examine the relationship between understanding medicolegal implications and compliance with the use of PPE among laboratory staff at Indriati Boyolali Hospital. Methods: This study used a cross-sectional observational design. The sample consisted of 120 laboratory staff at Indriati Boyolali Hospital who were selected randomly. Data was collected through structured questionnaires to measure the level of understanding of medicolegal implications and direct observation to assess compliance with PPE use. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive and inferential statistical tests (chi-square test and logistic regression). Results: The research results showed that there was a significant relationship between understanding medicolegal implications and compliance with PPE use (p < 0.05). Laboratory staff with a better understanding of medicolegal implications tend to demonstrate higher levels of compliance in the use of PPE. Other factors such as age, gender, and work experience were also found to influence compliance with PPE use. Conclusion: Understanding medicolegal implications is an important factor that contributes to compliance with the use of PPE among laboratory staff. Comprehensive educational interventions regarding medicolegal aspects of OSH can increase the understanding and awareness of laboratory staff, thereby contributing to improving occupational safety and health in the laboratory environment.

Crime has become a subculture, or a separate part of the culture public modernity is no longer just a deviation of social institutions. With advances in science and technology, investigators and experts can search for evidence through scientific analysis. This literature review aimed to describe the examination of silent evidence in the form of bloodstains which are generally found at murder crime scenes. The most common bloodstains found at crime scenes are on the floor. This is due to the drops of blood that fall to the floor following the direction of the earth's gravitational force. There are several things that must be considered in observing blood spots, namely the color of the blood, the estimated volume, and the color of the floor where the blood drips. Examination methods developed by forensic researchers around the world in assessing bloodstains include using electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), reflectance spectroscopy, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). In conclusion, the assessment of the color of the bloodstains as a silent witness can provide clues regarding the age of the bloodstains and the time of the crime.

Domestic violence is a very specific problem because domestic violence occurs at all levels of society, starting from the status community social from low to high social status. Most victims of domestic violence are women, whether wives or daughters, and the perpetrators are usually husbands or other subordinates in the household. This literature review aimed to describe the review of medicolegal aspects of domestic violence. Types of violence can be in the form of acts of physical, psychological, or sexual violence and neglect of the household. Physical violence is a physical act committed against another person or group that results in physical, sexual, and psychological harm. The factors that cause violence against women in the household, especially those perpetrated by husbands against wives, are the existence of an unequal power relationship between husband and wife, economic dependence, violence is used as a tool to resolve conflict, and competition between husband and wife. In conclusion, domestic violence is a form of violence against women because victims of domestic violence are generally women. Violence against women means violence that violates women's human rights, which also means violence that violates human rights.

Sexual violence is usually a covert case where the witnesses are the victim and the perpetrator. For various reasons, even victims may not be able to provide complete information about the perpetrator or the identity of the rapist. With limited initial information, physical and biological evidence found from victims, crime scenes, and perpetrators will play an important role in the objective and scientific reconstruction of the incident. This literature review aimed to describe various sperm examination methods and medicolegal aspects of rape cases. Identification of one or more intact spermatozoa is conclusive evidence of the presence of semen, further confirming sexual contact. The conditions and the sperm collection area play an important role in determining the time interval between deposition and sample collection. Examination of spermatozoa can be done without staining and with staining. Examination of semen can be done by examination (tactile, visual, UV light, acid phosphatase reagent, zinc spot test, and baecchi stain).

An autopsy or post-mortem is a medical examination procedure performed on a person's body after death to find out the cause of death or other medical conditions that can be identified from the deceased's body. This literature review aimed to describe a forensic autopsy review on the crime of murder. To be able to prove that a crime has been committed a forensic autopsy is used to prove whether the crime actually occurred or not. Forensic autopsy evidence is used to facilitate judges in making decisions and to expedite the course of proceedings in court so that the truth can be proven. Forensic autopsies are performed for criminal and legal investigation purposes. This autopsy can help identify the cause of a person's death, as well as gather evidence and information needed to assist the investigation process. The specific goals of a forensic autopsy are to study the cause of death of a person, gather evidence, identify victims, assist in criminal investigations and identify signs of violence. A forensic autopsy aims to reveal a cause of death for a person and for legal/court purposes.

Barotrauma is a trauma or wound that occurs in the organs of the body due to sudden changes in air pressure around either change in pressure in the air or underwater. This literature review aimed to describe barotrauma from a traumatology perspective. In the case of barotrauma, the pathophysiology will follow Boyle's law. Namely, there is a relationship between the volume of gas in a closed room and the surrounding environment. Barotrauma that occurs when the pressure drops are called a squeeze. Squeeze events occur when there is a space filled with air and a membrane with a supply of blood flow from arteries and veins and experience a sudden change in pressure. Manifestations of barotrauma can also occur in the teeth, spine, and joints due to sharp and rapid changes in pressure. Damage to the teeth can occur because air is trapped in the teeth or because the teeth are sensitive to pressure. Damage to the spine and joints can occur because the pressure causes the vertebral discs to shift or damage the joint tissue. In conclusion, barotrauma is damage caused by pressure differences in the body, especially in the ears, lungs, and sinuses. Deaths from barotrauma are commonly associated with diving, especially freediving and gear diving.
