I don't know of any magic items that do what you want. Mostly magic tends to focus on reversing death after it occurs. The only effect that I can think of is a feature of a subclass, so not really accessible if your character isn't already that class/subclass combo.
The feature is the Zealot Barbarian's Rage Beyond Death feature. While raging they do not fall unconscious due to having 0 hp. They do still follow the rules for death saving throws with two major exceptions. If they suffer 3 death save failures while raging they do not die until the rage ends. If they have 1 or more hp when the rage ends then all death save failures are ignored.

I am searching for a way to consistently negate death effects like power word kill.
The only thing that I can find in official material is death ward / (scroll of death ward).
Is there anything a little bit more consistent and maybe more generic?
I thought there has to be a magic item to resist these effects but I could not find anything.
