Medical Students' Knowledge of the Cause-of-Death Certification: A Descriptive, Cross-Sectional Study from Saudi Arabia.

The current study found that the overall performance of final-year medical students was reasonably good except for the fact that most misunderstood the underlying cause of death in the given case scenario. The majority of the students had attended a tutorial on medical certification of cause-of-death before participating in the current study, which suggests that continuous training might be required.
