The purpose of our study was to examine the perceptions of a good death among medical students, who are future care providers. The authors identified 9 domains that contribute to a good death according to first- and fifth-year medical students (N=432). From their perspective, being free from pain and physical distress is only 1 important component of a good death, and other elements such as psychosocial issues should also be taken into account. A majority of medical students considers psychosocial well-being as a highly relevant aspect of patients' conditions. The results of this study could help to develop concepts for better care and more empathy, which are needed to ensure a good death for all patients.
我们研究的目的是调查作为未来医疗服务提供者的医学生对善终的看法。作者根据一年级和五年级医学生（N = 432）确定了9个有助于善终的领域。从他们的角度来看，免于疼痛和身体痛苦只是善终的一个重要组成部分，其他因素如社会心理问题也应予以考虑。大多数医学生认为社会心理幸福感是患者状况的一个高度相关方面。这项研究的结果有助于形成更好的护理和更多同理心的概念，这是确保所有患者善终所必需的。
