pubmed:abstractText |
The high-fat ketogenic diet has long been used to treat refractory childhood seizures, but whether there is a relation between the degree of ketosis and effectiveness of seizure control remains unclear. Frequent measurements of plasma ketones are difficult in children so the goal was to determine the utility of breath acetone as a marker of systemic ketosis and seizure control in children given the ketogenic diet because of seizures refractory to medication.
