Original description
The Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder better characterized by an urge to move the legs at rest. Although treatments are available, many patients experience periods of symptoms relief and exacerbation. Whether this is due to the natural history of the disease or to health-related behaviors of daily life is presently unknown. The primary objective is to examine the feasibility of mobile technology to assess RLS symptoms severity fluctuations in daily life by collecting real-time data. The secondary objectives will be to examine the validity of this technic in the context of RLS and to use these real-time data to identify daily life risk factors for symptom onset or aggravation.Read full original descriptionShow less

Feasibility, Validity and Clinical Utility of Ecological Momentary Assessment in Patients With Restless Legs Syndrome: a Prospective Study. DAILY-REST

The Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a sensorimotor disorder better characterized by an urge to move the legs at rest. Although treatments are available, many patients experience periods of symptoms relief and exacerbation. Whether this is due to the natural history of the disease or to health-related behaviors of daily life is presently unknown. The primary objective is to examine the feasibility of mobile technology to assess RLS symptoms severity fluctuations in daily life by collecting real-time data. The secondary objectives will be to examine the validity of this technic in the context of RLS and to use these real-time data to identify daily life risk factors for symptom onset or aggravation.

Inclusion: Patient over 18 years old and less than 70; Any patient with a diagnosis of idiopathic RLS based on medical history and the presence of the 5 RLS diagnostic criteria; Normal clinical examination; Person affiliated or benefiting from a social security scheme; Free, informed and written consent signed by the participant and the investigator (no later than the day of inclusion and prior to any review required by the research).

Exclusion: Any significant psychiatric illness (schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, severe depression, dementia, obsessive compulsive disorder, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder ...) or mood disorder; History or presence of chronic pain other than that associated with RLS, history of epilepsy or serious head injury, history of peripheral neuropathy, diabetes; Clinically significant sleep apnea, narcolepsy, or any secondary causes of RLS (e.g. chronic renal failure/hemodialysis, pregnancy); Other active clinically significant illness, including unstable cardiovascular, or neoplasic pathology which could interfere with the study conduct or interfere with study assessments or compromise the study participation; Pregnant or breastfeeding woman; Persons referred to in articles L.1121-5 to L.1121-8 (persons deprived of liberty by judicial or administrative decision, minors, adults subject to a legal protection measure or unable to express their consent).
