 The Importance of Measuring Ketones The Importance of Measuring Ketones

Ketones can be detected in blood or urine, and high levels might indicate ketoacidosis. For people with diabetes, DKA is a severe complication that can lead to coma or even death. It is more common in type 1 diabetes, but also occurs in type 2, and in patients taking SGLT2 inhibitors. Discover more about the importance of ketone measurements and about how, why, and when to take measurements in the interview with Marcin Pacek.
