What's covered in this course

Welcome to this workshop where we explore the use of classical ketogenic diet (CKD). By the end, you will have calculated an individualised CKD prescription using the dietary units and percentage fat method. You will practice meal planning and the calculation of both an enteral feed and oral meal for a given case study and consider how to initiate a CKD and fine-tune for optimal effect. It should take you approximately 3.5 hours, including activities to complete.

Please note this workshop was delivered live during KetoCollege so the questions asked and answered are those of the delegates who attended. The poll questions are included later in this course as an interactive quiz for you.

This workshop covers the following topics:

Reflection on your clinical practice

Introduction and calculation of CKD

Calculation of nutritional requirements and CKD plan

Converting the CKD prescription to a meal plan

Resources to support meal planning

Back calculating a CKD and factors to consider when enteral tube feeding

Introduction of CKD and fine-tuning

I am a trainee Advanced Clinical Practitioner at Great Ormond Street Hospital (GOSH) working in the epilepsy and neurology service. I am currently in the final stages of my master’s in advanced clinical practice at London South Bank University. This is allowing me to develop my skills and knowledge to provide more holistic care for neurology inpatients and outpatients. I specialised in ketogenic diets in paediatric epilepsy and GLUT1 as a dietitian over the past 8 years at both GOSH and Birmingham Children’s Hospital.
