Overview
There is insufficient evidence to recommend routine screening for diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) but urine ketone dip test may be used in high risk population.
Screening
Urine ketone dip test
- The urine ketone dip test has high sensitivity for detecting DKA and a high negative predictive value for excluding DKA in hyperglycemic patients with diabetes.
- It is considered that urine dip test is a better tool for screening of DKA than serum ketone levels or serum bicarbonate levels.[1][2]
