N2  - Just the phrase "sudden death' carries its sense of trepidation and even horror. So fear-inducing is its reality and prospect, that we have attempted to sanitise it by the colloquialisms such as a "sudden death play off' in sport, and even (recalling my days in military service) as the name of a particularly ferocious mix of alcoholic beverage. One of the reasons why the phrase is so evocative is the force of the unexpected bereavement that follows sudden death. This paper purports to examine, using a systems approach, the psychological sequelae of the emotionally involved survivors of sudden death, and to relate this to possible intervention strategies.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
