Results The score of caregiver burden of liver transplant recipients was （28.84±14.33）， and67.8% of them had moderate and severe level of caregiver burden. Univariate analysis showed that there were statisticallysignificant differences in the level of care burden between liver transplant recipients with postoperative complications and their self-care ability， family caregivers with other diseases， family monthly income， daily care time and total caring time （P ＜ 0.05）. Multiple linear regression results showed that the self-care ability of liver transplant recipients and whetherfamily caregivers had other diseases were the influencing factors of care burden （P ＜ 0.05）.
