Results 7.9% of the respondents had received systematic death education, 57% of the respondents had difficulty handling dead/dying patients in clinical work, and 51.5% of the respondents thought it was essential to carry out death education for clinical medical students.Conclusion There is a lack of death education for medical students, and the current situation of clinically facing dead/dying patients is not ideal. Death education is urgently needed.
