Abstract

The response of plasma-25-hydroxyvitamin D (25[OH]D) to different exposures to ultraviolet irradiation has been studied in patients in long-stay geriatric wards. Increases sufficient to bring the plasma-25(OH)D into the normal range may be obtained with doses less than those required to produce erythema. The provision of such background irradiation may be a suitable method of preventing vitamin-D deficiency in elderly subjects who receive very little exposure to sunlight.
