The score of ZBl was (48.88±11.59) and 75.6% of caregivers showed moderate to high level of burden. There were statistically significant differences in the levels of caregiver burden among patients with different genders, educational levels and family caregivers (P<0.05). Caregivers with different characters had different coping styles.
