Complicated grief Formal criteria proposed for DSM-V:  Prolonged (>6 months) acute mourning.  Intense longing & yearning for the deceased.  Recurrent intrusive & distressing thoughts.  Inability to concentrate, engage in activities, or form new relationships. Schulz, R., et al. (2008) Geriatrics. 63(1):20-2.

Complicating grief Remember that the role of death rituals is to… 1.Provide social support to mourners. 2.Set limits to formal mourning. 3.Outline cultural obligations during mourning. 4.Restore the bereaved to society. Might deritualization lead to insufficient bereavement? Hunter, J. (2008) OMEGA. 56(2): Romanoff, BD & M. Terenzio (1998) Death Studies, 22:

Complicated grief Risk factors for complicated grief: SSudden/unexpected death PPediatric death VViolent/traumatic death LLack of social support LLow socioeconomic status/education UUnderlying anxiety/depression DDisenfranchised mourners Meert, KL, et al.

Incorporating rituals 1.To include rituals (religious & non-religious) in the medical history. F aith I mportance C ommunity A ddress Borneman, T., et al. (2010) J Pain Symptom Manage. 40(2):

Incorporating rituals 2.To explore facility rules in regards to rituals.  Ritual bathing  Laying of body on the floor  Religious ceremonies

Incorporating rituals 3.To recognize our unique role in modern biomedical rituals.  Ritual of coming to hospital  Ritual of CPR  Ritual of withdrawal  Ritual of pronouncement Mohammed, S & E Peter. (2009) Nurs Ethics. 16(3):

Incorporating rituals 4.To know when to ask for help.  Pastoral Care  Other clergy/religious leaders  Family  Other clinicians

Personal Grief The “unexamined” life of clinicians:  Professional loneliness  Loss of professional meaning  Cynicism  Helplessness  Hopelessness  Frustration  Anger  Depression  Burnout Meier, DE, et al. (2001) JAMA. 286(23):

Personal rituals Seek outlets for self-reflection & processing:  Praying/meditating  Exercising  Writing (e.g. journaling, sympathy cards)  Calling family members or other clinicians  Attending funerals, memorial services Moneymaker, KA & Traeger, J. (2007) J Palliat Med. 10(1):270-1.

conclusions  We should recognize that rituals help us make sense of death as a society.  We should appreciate that all cultures have rich ceremonies for dealing with death & dying.  We should consider the role that we play in the death rituals of our patients.  We should reflect on the importance of ritual in our own response to death & dying as caregivers.

This is my play's last scene; here heavens appoint My pilgrimage's last mile; and my race, Idly, yet quickly run, hath this last pace, My span's last inch, my minute's latest point; And gluttonous death will instantly unjoint My body and my soul, and I shall sleep a space; But my'ever-waking part shall see that face Whose fear already shakes my every joint. Then, as my soul to'heaven, her first seat, takes flight, And earth-born body in the earth shall dwell, So fall my sins, that all may have their right, To where they'are bred, and would press me, to hell. Impute me righteous, thus purg'd of evil, For thus I leave the world, the flesh, the devil. - John Donne (1572–1631)
