Restless Legs Syndrome Clinical Trial
Official title:
Sequential Compression Devices for Treatment of Restless Legs Syndrome - a Prospective, Randomized, Sham-Controlled Study
The purpose of this study is to determine if sequential compression devices (SCD) when worn for an hour per day by patients suffering from Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) are helpful for the improvement of the RLS symptoms and sleep.
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a highly vexing problem manifested by sensory and motor
symptoms that disrupt sleep onset or sleep maintenance. RLS is the second most common sleep
disorder and occurs with an estimated prevalence of 10% in the general population. The sleep
disruption results in daytime symptoms such as excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS) and mood
changes. There are no consistently reliable treatment alternatives. There is an urgent need
for new, innovative treatment strategies because available pharmacological treatments often
stop working over time or are associated with unacceptable side effects. An effective
nonpharmacological treatment would be a highly attractive alternative.
Anecdotally, patients have reported that use of sequential compression devices (SCD)
prescribed for prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis can have a positive effect on RLS
symptoms. Because this nonpharmacological alternative is available, safe, and affordable,
further investigation is warranted.
Simply stated, the null hypothesis is that SCD therapy does not have an impact on RLS
symptoms.
Patients will be randomized to wearing SCDs or sham SCDs for an hour each day prior to the
usual onset of the RLS symptoms. At baseline and at monthly follow-ups for 3 to 4 months,
participants will complete questionnaires to assess the severity of the RLS symptoms, their
daytime sleepiness, and the impact of the RLS on quality of life.
