Abstract:
The ketogenic diet is an established, effective and well-tolerated treatment in refractory epilepsy. This paper provides practical information on the administration of ketogenic diet. It goes over the standardized protocols and the new ones that allow to broaden the scope regarding the clinical management of the ketogenic diet. It addresses issues such as the implementation, counseling and follow-up as well as the application and how to proceed in special situations such as anesthesia or acute illness. Finally, the aim of this paper is to highlight the relevance of the multidisciplinary teamwork and the family support throughout this laborious but interesting treatment.
