Prevalence and risk factors of prolonged grief disorder among bereaved survivors seven years after the Wenchuan earthquake in China: A cross-sectional study

Conclusions This study revealed that a significantly high proportion (8.47%) of the Wenchuan earthquake-bereaved remain grieving seven years after the event. Those diagnosed with PGD should receive appropriate interventions from clinical psychologists. The risk factors identified in this study are crucial for the early screening and prevention of PGD in future nursing and psycho-clinical practices.
