Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glucosuria and ketones tests are usually done 30 minutes before each meal and at bedtime to monitor blood sugar levels for patients with diabetes. This timing provides a better understanding of the patient's blood sugar levels and appropriate medication dosages. Testing every time the person urinates may not be practical or necessary. AM and bedtime care or after meals may not provide an accurate picture of the patient's blood sugar levels.
