Description
Sae-Lim and colleagues adapted a grief questionnaire for Thai caregivers in a 2026 study. The tool screens for grief that stays severe and long lasting after a loved one dies. Caregivers of patients with final-stage cancer often face that risk, but the original questions were written in English for other cultures.
The team translated the questions, had experts review them, and tested them with caregivers at a Bangkok hospital. Scores held steady over two weeks and lined up well with measures of worry, low mood, and caregiver strain. One weak question was dropped, leaving a short tool that Thai care teams can trust for screening.
