  • Data are percentages unless otherwise indicated. The number of serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D tests done increased from 290 in 2007 to 12194 in 2012. The percentage of patients with serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D <12, 20, 30 or >150 ng/mL did not change appreciably. If anything the serum25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations decreased during the period of observation, again attesting that patients were undertreated.
