Filter by:This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter clinical trial is designed to to assess the treatment efficacy and tolerability of pregabalin in patients with idiopathic restless legs syndrome in South Korea.
This Stage II randomized, controlled, longitudinal trial seeks to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and effects of a driving decision aid use among geriatric patients and providers. This multi-site trial will (1) test the driving decision aid (DDA) in improving decision making and quality (knowledge, decision conflict, values concordance and behavior intent); and (2) determine its effects on specific subpopulations of older drivers (stratified for cognitive function, decisional capacity, and attitudinally readiness for a mobility transition). The overarching hypotheses are that the DDA will help older adults make high-quality decisions, which will mitigate the negative psychosocial impacts of driving reduction, and that optimal DDA use will target certain populations and settings.
The purpose of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a 16-week behavioral intervention for increasing physical activity and reducing restless legs syndrome (RLS) severity in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS) and RLS. The study includes a proposed sample of 20 persons with MS and RLS that will be randomized into either a 16-week behavioral intervention arm aimed at increasing physical activity or a 16-week wait-list control arm.
In this studly, the effects of an 8-week videogame-based physical activity training in persons with multiple sclerosis will be investigated.
Investigator have recently shown that Parkinson disease patients' with restless leg Syndrome have more frequent impulse control behavior in particular compulsive feeding that patients without Restless Leg Syndrome (RLS). Investigator hypothesized that presence of RLS in parkinsonian patients could be a risk factor for the emergence of TCI or associated behaviors, occurring preferentially at night. The main objective of this study is to evaluate in patients with idiopathic Parkinson's disease (IPD) the effect of the presence of a RLS on the evening compulsive eating behavior by studying the circadian modulation of food intake of patients with RLS and impulse control disorders. For this investigator conduct a prospective study, with 2 groups of Parkinson disease patients (with and without restless leg syndrome), to which investigator have to fill an agenda to know the schedule of the behaviors during the day and the night.
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.
The purpose of this study is to see whether adults with Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) are willing to be in a 12-week study where they have a 50-50 chance of being placed in either a gentle yoga program or a film-based education program designed for people with RLS. If so, do they complete the program, and does their RLS, sleep, mood, or quality of life improve?
The overall goal of this proposed study is to evaluate the underlying mechanisms of neural control of blood flow in the lower extremities in humans with restless leg syndrome (RLS). At least 15% of the general public suffers from RLS and many more may go undiagnosed. This unfortunate disorder leads primarily to a disturbing sensation within the patient's lower extremities that requires movement for relief (1, 2). The central hypothesis of our study is that physiological changes in lower limb blood flow as a result of thoracolumbar epidural Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) lead to the relief of RLS.
Patients with inflammatory bowel disease, such as Crohn´s disease or ulcerative colitis, have recurring episodes of abdominal pain, diarrhea and loss of weight. Besides this other clinical symptoms are possible e.g. deficiency syndromes such as iron deficiency. Iron deficiency usually attended by symptoms like hair loss, pale skin, loss of concentration or fatigue. In some cases iron deficiency can lead to neurological manifestations such as restless-legs-syndrome (RLS). Restless legs syndrome is a neurological disorders which is accompanied by substantial urge to move legs or other parts of the body and unpleasant sensations. Aim of this study is to to investigate the prevalence of RLS in patients with inflammatory bowel disease and furthermore evaluate the effect of iron supplementation in patients with iron deficiency and concomitant RLS.
Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is defined as the spontaneous movement of the limbs (mainly legs) associated with unpleasant - painful sensation which is relieved by moving the affected limb. It is a common disorder in hemodialysis patients that leads to insomnia, impaired daytime functioning and quality of life. Symptoms of RLS are estimated to affect up to 25% of patients on dialysis when the international RLS diagnostic criteria are applied. Various pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions have been used to treat primary RLS. However, the evidence for use of these interventions in people with End stage renal disease is not well established; and some have serious side effects. Because high oxidative stress has been implicated in the pathogenesis of RLS, investigators thought of evaluating the efficacy of vitamin C in reducing the severity of RLS symptoms in hemodialysis patients in this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, two arm parallel trial. To note that only two studies were done worldwide that proved the efficacy of vitamin C in those patients.
