In this study, we aim to assess the knowledge and awareness of the NME in children between population in Al-Baha region in Saudi Arabia.\n\nMaterials and Methods: This is a cross-sectional study conducted among the population Al-Baha region, from February 2024 to April 2024, inclusion criteria include individuals living in Al-Baha, who are older than 18 years and agree to participate. We excluded those who are not willing to participate or not residing in Al-Baha and healthcare professionals. Data collection done via an online validated questionnaire in Arabic language. Statistical analyses were conducted using Chi-square test and Fisher\u2019s exact test. A significance level of less than 0.05 (P &lt; 0.05) was considered statistically significant.\n\nResults: 588 participants were included. Females were majority (69.6%), and the largest age group was 40\u201349 years old (34.7%). We found that (59.5%) of participants had not heard or read about NME. There were some misconceptions noted, such as (67.3%) who believed that both genders are equally affected and incorrect identification of symptoms (37.1%). The awareness of the case recurrence was (55.1%). Friends or family are the primary sources of information (18.2%). And lastly, (76.9%) of participants expressed a desire to learn more about NME.\n\nConclusion: There is an obvious lack of knowledge about NME among population in the Al-Baha region, so more awareness campaigns for society are needed to raise the level of knowledge, and to prevent the occurrence and recurrence.\n\nKeywords: Al-Baha region, Nursemaid\u2019s elbow, Radial head subluxation, Pulled elbow, Pediatric injury, Parental awareness, Saudi Arabia.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.13107\/jocr.2025.v15.i06.5730","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,7]],"date-time":"2025-06-07T10:20:13Z","timestamp":1749291613000},"page":"257-263","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Assessment of Population Knowledge and Awareness of Nursemaid\u2019s Elbow in Children: A Cross-Sectional Study in Al-Baha Region, Saudi Arabia"],"prefix":"10.13107","volume":"15","author":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedic Surgery, College of Medicine, University of Jeddah, Jeddah, Saudi Arabia,","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ramy","family":"Samargandi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Reem M","family":"Alharthi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Baha University, Al-Aqiq, Saudi Arabia,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Adham M","family":"Alghamdi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Baha University, Al-Aqiq, Saudi Arabia,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Miad A","family":"Alzahrani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Baha University, Al-Aqiq, Saudi Arabia,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Majdi H","family":"Alzahrani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Al-Baha University, Al-Aqiq, Saudi Arabia,","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Khalid A","family":"Alzahrani","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"name":"Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine, Al-Baha University, Al-Aqiq, Saudi Arabia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"5271","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"container-title":["Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,7]],"date-time":"2025-06-07T10:20:13Z","timestamp":1749291613000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jocr.co.in\/wp\/2025\/06\/01\/assessment-of-population-knowledge-and-awareness-of-nursemaids-elbow-in-children-a-cross-sectional-study-in-al-baha-region-saudi-arabia\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"6","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.13107\/jocr.2025.v15.i06.5730","relation":{},"ISSN":["2321-3817"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2321-3817","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2025]]}}}
