    I found this site. Since Ketone urine strips are in mg/dL and mmol/L are usually used for Ketone meter measurements, I compared the numbers.
    http://unitslab.com/node/226

    Strips (mg/dL) = Ketone meter (mmol/L)
    trace 5 = 0.5
    small 15 = 1.5
    mod 40 = 4
    large 80 = 8
    large 160 = 16

    We in the rest of the world convert from mmol/L to mg/dl all the time with our blood glocuse numbers. Just multiply mmol/L by 18.

    More about blood ketone meters here.

    General info:

    The 'multiply mmol/L by 18 to get mg/dL value' rule applies to glucose. Conversions between the two different units for other substances need multipliers specific to those substances.
