طفل صرع مقاوم للأدوية بدأ النظام الغذائي الكيتوني. أي مراقبة مهمة؟

A child with drug-resistant epilepsy has started a ketogenic diet. What monitoring is important?

1. Stopping water intake to raise the ketones
2. Glucose, ketones, kidney stones and growth
3. Adding sugars to prevent lows
4. No dietary follow-up is needed

Answer: B) Glucose, ketones, kidney stones and growth. The high-fat, low-carbohydrate ketogenic diet reduces seizures in some children and needs specialist supervision of glucose, ketones, growth, lipids and kidney stones, with adequate fluids.
