The physiological importance of calcium and vitamin D intake, specifically in a pediatric population, is readily understood by pediatric orthopaedists. However, there is a lack of research that demonstrates caregivers' awareness regarding pediatric orthopaedic patients' bone health, such as the importance of nutrition, sunlight exposure, and supplementation. This study aims to assess the knowledge base of caregivers of pediatric orthopaedic patients and to identify associations between bone health knowledge and demographic factors. It is hypothesized that this study will not only elucidate a general lack of knowledge regarding nutritional sources of vitamin D and calcium but will also clarify the populations in which this deficit is most pronounced.
