NCT ID: NCT00942253 Completed - Clinical trials for End Stage Renal Disease

Exercise Training in Dialysis Patients With Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS)

HDRLS
Start date: September 2006
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

Uremic etiology Restless legs syndrome (RLS) has been associated with poorer quality of life (QoL) compared to RLS-free counterparts mainly due to sleep deprivation factors. Exercise training in hemodialysis (HD) patients with RLS has been proven to be a safe approach in temporally ameliorating RLS symptoms similarly to the use of pharmacological treatment with dopamine agonists. However it not known whether the exercise anabolic stimulus and the dopamine agonist treatment could act synergistically for the improvement of physical functioning and muscle performance as well as in the amelioration of augmentation symptoms in hemodialysis patients with RLS.
