    Abstract Background: A significant proportion of emergency medical services (EMS) work is for problems that may be amenable to timely primary care management and could benefit from GP input. Utilising GPs in EMS may reduce avoidable emergency department (ED) conveyance, releasing emergency ambulances for higher-acuity care, and meeting patient needs earlier in the evolution of an emergency call.
    Aim: To collate and summarise evidence on how GPs are utilised in EMS.
    Design & setting: Systematic mapping review and narrative synthesis.
    Method: A systematic literature search was conducted using search terms for general practice and emergency care. Primary research articles investigating the utilisation of GPs in non-critical EMS were included. An inductive framework was used to structure the results alongside a narrative synthesis.
    Results: Twenty-one articles were included. GPs were embedded in EMS for urgent management of high-acuity patients or used as an intervention to avoid unnecessary ED conveyance in selected lower-acuity patients. The importance of interprofessional relationships and training for GPs involved in EMS was highlighted. No studies explored patient-reported outcomes. Outcomes measured were predominantly ED non-conveyance and admission avoidance, with GP services as an intervention reducing the likelihood of these outcomes.
    Conclusion: Embedding GPs in EMS might service different purposes depending on context. There is some evidence that GP EMS services may reduce the likelihood of ED conveyance and hospital admission in selected cases; it is unclear whether this is owing to case selection or GP involvement. Future research should incorporate patients' views and experiences.

    Abstract Those who are bereaved during the current COVID-19 pandemic are subject to restrictions on funeral sizes and practices. We conducted a rapid review synthesising the quantitative and qualitative evidence regarding the effect of funeral practices on bereaved relatives' mental health and bereavement outcomes. Searches of MEDLINE, PsycINFO, KSR Evidence, and COVID-related resources were conducted. 805 records were screened; 17 studies of variable quality were included. Current evidence regarding the effect of funeral practices on bereaved relatives' mental health and bereavement outcomes is inconclusive. Five observational studies found benefits from funeral participation while six did not. However, qualitative research provides additional insight: the benefit of after-death rituals including funerals depends on the ability of the bereaved to shape those rituals and say goodbye in a way which is meaningful for them. Findings highlight the important role of funeral officiants during the pandemic. Research is needed to better understand the experiences and sequalae of grief and bereavement during COVID-19.

    Abstract Background: Rates of blood testing have increased over the past two decades. Reasons for testing cannot easily be extracted from electronic health record databases.
    Aim: To explore who requests blood tests and why, and what the outcomes of testing are in UK primary care.
    Design and setting: A retrospective audit of electronic health records in general practices in England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland was undertaken.
    Method: Fifty-seven clinicians from the Primary care Academic CollaboraTive (PACT) each reviewed the electronic health records of 50 patients who had blood tests in April 2021. Anonymised data were extracted including patient characteristics, who requested the tests, reasons for testing, test results, and outcomes of testing.
    Results: Data were collected from 2572 patients across 57 GP practices. The commonest reasons for testing in primary care were investigation of symptoms (43.2%), monitoring of existing disease (30.1%), monitoring of existing medications (10.1%), and follow up of previous abnormalities (6.8%); patient requested testing was rare in this study (1.5%). Abnormal and borderline results were common, with 26.6% of patients having completely normal test results. Around one-quarter of tests were thought to be partially or fully unnecessary when reviewed retrospectively by a clinical colleague. Overall, 6.2% of tests in primary care led to a new diagnosis or confirmation of a diagnosis.
    Conclusion: The utilisation of a national collaborative model (PACT) has enabled a unique exploration of the rationale and outcomes of blood testing in primary care, highlighting areas for future research and optimisation.
