Inclusion criteria consisted of chart information, including date, unique accountnumber, medical record number, weight, age, sex, and arm affected. Exclusion criteria included anycharts with missing or incomplete data.Results: There were 1,228 charts that met inclusion criteria. The majority of patients were female(60%). The mean age was 28.6 months (612.6). The left arm was affected 60% of the time.Most of the included patients were over the 75th percentile for weight and more than one quarter wereover the 95th percentile in each gender.Conclusion: The average age of children presenting with nursemaid’s elbow was 28.6 months.Females were affected more than males, and the left arm was predominately affected. Most patientswere above the 75th percentile for weight and more than one quarter were over the 95th percentile forweight.
