Instant death spells/skills don't inflict any kind of damage, they just kill outright (often, but not always, leaving a beautifully unmarred corpse).

Or they fail and don't inflict any damage, though sometimes they cause a bad status (stunning, paralysis, confusion, etc.) even if they fail.

Status effects (good or bad) are also not based on HP (though I've always thought that extreme HP loss should inflict bad status effects, someone fighting all-out with 1% of their HP and then keeling over dead from a scratch always seems a bit stupid to me).
