The search period was from establishment of the databases to July 31, 2023. The quality of the included literature was evaluated using the qualitative research appraisal tool of Australia Joanna Briggs Institute Evidence-based Health Care Center, and the results were analyzed using the Meta-integration method.Results:A total of eight articles were included, and 35 research results were extracted, which were summarized into 10 new categories and integrated into four results, namely, the dilemma of multiple challenges, complex emotional experience, multi-dimensional care needs and positive coping strategies.Conclusions:The caregivers of children with liver transplantation are faced with great pressure and difficulties in the process of care, and they are eager for multifaceted support.
