Abstract

Objectives: Survey of factors associated with Vitamin D deficiency status at E Hospital Geriatric Clinic. Subjects and Methods: A cross-sectional descriptive study in 203 patients. Patients were assessed for vitamin D deficiency and related factors. Results: 92.6% of patients had vitamin D deficiency. Vitamin D deficiency status in women (97.2%) was higher than in men (82.0%), (p < 0.05). Different age groups had different rates of Vitamin D deficiency (p > 0.05). The proportion of patients in rural areas with vitamin D deficiency (100%) was greater than that of patients in urban areas (92.1%), (p > 0.05). The group of patients with decreased or increased calcium concentration had a higher rate of vitamin D deficiency (100.0%) than the group of patients with normal calcium concentration (91.9%), (p > 0.05). Conclusions: Gender was related to Vitamin D deficiency. There has been no association between Vitamin D deficiency with age, location and blood calcium concentration.
