Autonomic Assessment in Patients With Restless Legs Syndrome

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor, sleep-related disorder characterized by urgency to move the legs during inactivity or resting state. Although the exact mechanism is not clearly understood, sleep disturbances and dopamine deficiency may regarded as a potential contributing factor for autonomic dysfunction. The objective of the study is to evaluate autonomic functions and determine possible associations between autonomic dysfunction with clinical factors in patients with RLS.

Clinical Trial Description

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) also known as Willis- Ekbom disease, is a common sensorimotor, sleep-related disorder characterized by an unpleasant feeling with urgency to move the legs (or less commonly the arms) during inactivity or resting state. Although, the clinical importance of autonomic involvement in patients with restless legs syndrome (RLS) remains incompletely understood, sleep disturbances and dopamine deficiency may regarded as a potential contributing factor for autonomic dysfunction. Previous reports have described autonomic impairment including changes in nocturnal blood pressure and heart rate variability (HRV), gastrointestinal, urinary and sexual dysfunction in patients with RLS. Despite many studies about electrophysiological autonomic changes in RLS, number of studies exploring autonomic functions by using Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's disease-Autonomic questionnaire (SCOPA-AUT) are limited. In this study, the investigators plan to compare the presence of autonomic symptoms by using Scales for Outcomes in Parkinson's disease-Autonomic (SCOPA-AUT) questionnaire in drug- naive RLS patients to healthy controls. In addition, the investigators aim to evaluate possible associations between autonomic dysfunction with clinical factors in patients with RLS. ;
