What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a severe complication of type 1 diabetes (T1D) that can have life-threatening consequences. It occurs when there is a high level of glucose in the blood and the body produces excessive amounts of ketone bodies. To manage this condition, individuals with T1D need to constantly monitor their levels of ketone bodies and glucose. While continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices have made significant advancements in providing non-invasive or minimally invasive glucose measurements, there has been little progress in developing methods for continuous monitoring of ketone bodies (CKM). Currently, the commonly used approaches involve self monitoring with commercially available blood or urine strips. However, these tools have limited adoption, provide only single time point measurements, and can be costly for some patients. In our project, which is funded by Breakt
