Filter by:A randomized, double-blind controlled Study from a single center to evaluate the effect and safety of pramipexole on peritoneal dialysis patients with restless legs syndrome
This study was performed to assess the effects of continuous remifentanil infusion and single bolus administration of fentanyl on the incidence of emergence agitation in pediatrics undergoing strabismus surgery.
The DISCO-RLS Trial is a randomized controlled trial to determine the safety and efficacy of pharmacologic therapy (ropinirole versus placebo and gabapentin versus placebo) for the treatment of Restless Legs Syndrome in patients with End Stage Renal Disease requiring hemodialysis.
Suvorexant improves sleep latency and wake after sleep onset in patients with primary insomnia, and is FDA approved for this condition. However, no data exist on its effects in RLS, so far. The investigators consider that suvorexant might provide a stable therapeutic efficacy for the long treatment, avoiding the risk of augmentation of symptoms commonly seen under dopamine agonists.
The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the efficacy of rotigotine against placebo in adolescent subjects with idiopathic Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) over a 12-week maintenance period and to investigate the safety and tolerability of rotigotine in adolescent subjects with idiopathic RLS.
To evaluate the safety of brexpiprazole 1 mg or 2 mg after a 14 week treatment regimen for agitation associated with dementia of the Alzheimer's type patients who completed in a double-blind trial, and to investigate the efficacy of brexpiprazole.
The study evaluates the effects of Prazosin on agitation in adults with Alzheimer's disease. Two thirds of the participants will participate in the medication portion, while one third will participate in the placebo portion
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurologic disorder characterized by 1) an urge to move the legs, 2) uncomfortable sensations in the legs, 3) symptoms that are often worse the evening or when at rest , and 4) may be temporarily relieved by physical activity. The overall prevalence of RLS in the general population is estimated to be around 10%, however, it is significantly in the end stage kidney disease (ESKD) population is significantly higher (approximately 30%). Studies have shown that RLS has a substantial negative impact on both the physical and the mental health dimensions of quality of life (QOL), such as depression, anxiety, pain, fatigue and sleep disorder. While non-pharmacological treatments should be considered for all patients, pharmacological management of RLS is indicated when the affects patient's sleep or quality of life. Gabapentin and dopamine agonists such as ropinirole are usually the first choices in treating RSL. Although these medications are also used in patients with renal impairment, few studies provide treatment data for the hemodialysis population. Treatment recommendations for this population are largely based on data obtained in the general population. This study aims to evaluate effectiveness of ropinirole and gabapentin for the treatment of restless legs syndrome in patients on maintenance hemodialysis.
This study is a clinical trial, prospective, randomized and double-blinded. Placebo, Gabapentin syrup at 15 mg/kg, and Gabapentin syrup at 30 mg/kg were administered to reduce agitation before and after in children submitted procedures (myelogram or lumbar puncture) among 1 and 6 years.
The purpose of this research study is to determine whether the use of weighted blankets help reduce behavioral and psychological symptoms, including agitation in people with dementia.
