Status Recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

In order to increase adherence to ketogenic diet treatment, palatability of meals and diversify the foods offered to patients a ketogenic kitchen will be created. Intervention: Incorporation of culinary workshops and supply of recipes for patients undergoing ketogenic diet treatment at Instituto da Criança - HCFMUSP.

Clinical Trial Description

Introduction: The ketogenic diet is a therapeutic option for the control of drug-resistant epileptic seizures. It is based on high fat consumption, protein control and carbohydrate restriction. As a result, the body uses fat as an energy substrate instead of glucose. Changing the patient's daily menu and eating routine is hard and requires dedication from the caregiver for the best therapeutic result. In clinical practice, the diet becomes monotonous and poorly accepted by the patient over time. Besides, there is a difficulty in understanding nutritional guidelines. It is necessary to develop strategies to increase adherence to treatment, palatability of meals and diversify the foods offered to patients. Objective: To evaluate the effectiveness of creating a ketogenic kitchen in improving compliance of patients with CD in the outpatient clinic of Instituto da Criança - HCFMUSP. Methods: this work will be carried out in 4 steps: (1st) Creation and validation of a questionnaire of ketogenic diet compliance, (2nd) Creation of ketogenic recipes of easy preparation and low cost, (3rd) Incorporation of culinary workshops and supply of recipes for patients undergoing treatment at Instituto da Criança - HCFMUSP and (4th) Application of the questionnaire of ketogenic diet compliance. ;
