Objective To follow for education in transplant recipients, to take active interventions, so as to establish the health belief model to reduce the incidence of adverse health events and improve long-term survival and quality of life of patients. Methods CLTR records and follow-up examination of 374 patients transplanted for HBV-related disease who were admitted to the General Hospital of Chinese People's Armed Police Forces from January 2006 to January 2009 were analysed retrospectively.

The health model intervention group was taken educational intervening during follow up. It was found that many patients often ignore the postoperative follow-up by long-term tracking of liver transplant patients. Results The statistical analysis of investigation results found that elder patients and secondary education need more psychological counseling than others. They were easier to psychological problems and affecting life treatment after improper postoperative follow-up. After the transplant center patients after 6 months of follow—up health model intervention compared with the control group, the major difference in the incidence of postoperative adverse events were statistically significant （all P < 0.05） . Conclusions Liver transplanted patients must attach great importance to the postoperative fbllow-up. The health belief model can reduce the patient's incidence of adverse events and improve their long-term survival rate and quality.
