Re: measuring blood ketones/a

[Guest guest]

Hi a,

I use the Medisense optium and was on the trial at GOSH - we

were looking at a rate of between 3-6 as being a good ketone level -

but different children can do better at a lower rate - is

normally around the 2.4 mark in the morning - which can be too low

for some kids but he seems fine on it.

Hope this helps.
