Tóm tắt	The Good Death Inventory (GDI) is a 20-item self-report measure assessing the patient's and family's perception of whether the death was 'good'—characterized by pain control, peace, meaningful closure, preparation, maintenance of dignity, and a sense that life was lived fully. Developed by Ching and colleagues in Hong Kong in 2009, the GDI operationalizes the multidimensional concept of a 'good death' into measurable dimensions, enabling clinicians and researchers to understand what makes end-of-life care meaningful and to identify deaths marked by distress or unfinished business.	The Patient Dignity Inventory (PDI) is a 25-item self-report measure assessing dignity-related distress in patients with advanced cancer and life-limiting illness. Developed by Chochinov and colleagues at the University of Manitoba in 2008, the PDI operationalizes 'dignity' as a multidimensional construct encompassing illness-related functional decline, psychosocial concerns (fear, hopelessness, suicidality), body image distress, existential meaning, and social connection—dimensions often overlooked by symptom-focused assessment. The PDI enables clinicians to identify and address dignity threats systematically, preventing the existential despair that can accompany terminal illness even when physical symptoms are well-controlled.
