Why Ketone Measurements Are Important
Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA) is a life-threatening metabolic complication of diabetes with a mortality rate of 2%-10%1
DKA is the leading cause of hospitalization, morbidity, and death in children with type 1 diabetes 2
The use of a blood test for early detection of increased blood ketone levels can help to avert DKA3,4,5
According to the ADA, blood ketone testing should be performed on sick days and whenever glucose is greater than 250-300 mg/dL.
