Farnaz Rahmani et al.

Summary: During the Covid-19 pandemic, nurses have been greatly affected in terms of their physical and psychological well-being due to challenging working conditions. This study aimed to investigate complicated grief and its related factors among nursing staff. The findings showed that a significant proportion of participants (57.6%) were suffering from complicated grief, and factors such as gender, educational background, type of ward, nursing role, working shift, years of experience, and working in Covid-19 settings were significantly associated with nurses' grief.

Are deaths from COVID-19 associated with higher rates of prolonged grief disorder (PGD) than deaths from other causes?

James Gang et al.

Summary: This study investigates the risk factors for Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD) during the COVID-19 pandemic. The results show that shorter time since death, deaths of siblings and others, and deaths from accidents and homicides are associated with a higher potential risk of probable PGD. On the other hand, deaths of extended family and from dementia are associated with a lower potential risk of probable PGD.

Bereavement outcomes in family members of those who died in acute care hospitals before and during the first wave of COVID-19: A cohort study

James Downar et al.

Summary: Severe grief symptoms are common among family members who have lost loved ones during the COVID-19 pandemic, regardless of the cause or timing of death. This suggests that specific factors related to the pandemic contribute to severe grief, and traditional methods of mitigating grief may not be as effective.

Tamara van Schaik et al.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted grief experiences of bereaved relatives and altered accustomed ways of coping with loss. This review examines the emotional responses, changes in grief, the effect of absence during final moments, a lack of involvement in the caring process, the impact on communities and social support systems, and the alteration of funerals among bereaved relatives. The study also highlights the poor bereavement outcomes and health implications associated with death during COVID-19, as well as signs of resilience and coping among the bereaved.

How do Funeral Practices impact Bereaved Relatives' Mental Health, Grief and Bereavement? A Mixed Methods Review with Implications for COVID-19

Alexander Burrell et al.

Summary: This article conducted a rapid review on the impact of funeral practices during the COVID-19 pandemic on the mental health and bereavement outcomes of the bereaved. The current evidence is inconclusive, but qualitative research suggests that the ability of the bereaved to shape the funeral rituals and say goodbye in a meaningful way is beneficial. The role of funeral officiants during the pandemic is highlighted, and further research is needed to better understand the experiences and consequences of grief and bereavement during COVID-19.

Lauren J. Breen et al.

Summary: Bereaved individuals from COVID-19 experience higher levels of grief compared to those bereaved from natural causes. Functional impairment in this group is associated with symptoms of separation distress, dysfunctional grief, and posttraumatic stress.

Emily Harrop et al.

Bereavement in Times of COVID-19: A Review and Theoretical Framework

Margaret Stroebe et al.

Summary: Current literature on adaptation to bereavement during the COVID-19 pandemic relies on expert assessments and professional experience rather than empirical evidence; authors consistently predict severe negative consequences, but there is limited consideration of positive or compensatory processes; theoretical models for guiding research and practice are often overlooked except for few exceptions.

Bereavement care in Germany: Framework for a stepped care model

Heidi Mueller et al.

Summary: The loss of a loved one can have serious health implications, and in Germany, bereavement care services usually provide support regardless of risk or need. However, there is currently no proposed structural framework for these services to establish qualitative standards nationwide. The British stepped care model for professionalized bereavement support is being discussed internationally, and this paper aims to adapt it to the German context to enhance bereavement care services across the country.
