Relatives wished for a contact person responsible for providing information on the medical and mental condition of their family members. The lack of information, of support by others and physical closeness due to the visiting restrictions, as well as not being able to say goodbye, were felt as burdens and led to emotional distress. However, case-by-case decisions were made and creative ways of staying in touch were experienced positively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Our results indicate that the strong need for closeness when a family member was dying could not be met due to the pandemic. This led to suffering that can be prevented. Visits need to be facilitated by making considered decisions on a case-by-case basis. For easy communication with relatives, approaches should be made by healthcare professionals and support for virtual communication should be offered. Furthermore, the results of the study can help to implement or develop ideas to enable dignified farewells even during pandemics.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/02692163221076355","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,30]],"date-time":"2022-03-30T00:22:33Z","timestamp":1648599753000},"page":"708-716","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["It\u2019s\n                    <i>like standing in front of a prison fence<\/i>\n                    \u2013 Dying during the SARS-CoV2 pandemic: A qualitative study of bereaved relatives\u2019 experiences"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-4209-6659","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Berenike","family":"Pauli","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Palliative Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Julia","family":"Strupp","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Palliative Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Karlotta","family":"Schloesser","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Palliative Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Raymond","family":"Voltz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Palliative Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"},{"name":"University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Center for Integrated Oncology Aachen Bonn Cologne Dusseldorf (CIO ABCD), Germany"},{"name":"University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Clinical Trials Center (ZKS), Germany"},{"name":"University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Center for Health Services Research, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Norma","family":"Jung","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department I of Internal Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Charlotte","family":"Leisse","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department I of Internal Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Claudia","family":"Bausewein","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Palliative Medicine, Munich University Hospital, Munich, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Anne","family":"Pralong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Palliative Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Steffen T","family":"Simon","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Palliative Medicine, University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Cologne, Germany"},{"name":"University of Cologne, Faculty of Medicine and University Hospital, Center for Integrated Oncology Aachen Bonn Cologne Dusseldorf (CIO ABCD), Germany"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"name":"for the PallPan consortium","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,3,29]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1080\/07481187.2020.1731014"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/S1041610220000745"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/02692163211004210"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","unstructured":"Ministerium f\u00fcr Arbeit Gesundheit und Soziales des Landes Nordrhein-Westfalen.
