RESTLESS LEGS SYNDROME AND QIALITY OF LIFE IN HEMODIALYSIS PATIENTS, CLINICAL EFFICIENCY OF GABAPENTIN
Abstract
In research clinical efficiency of gabapentin at RLS and influence of RLS was studied on quality of life for patients on haemodialysis. Used questionnaire of estimation of quality of life of SF – 36, and for diagnostics of RLS - 4 criteria are worked out by an international group RLS - IRLSSG(International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group). It was educed that RLS substantially worsens quality of life patients that treat oneself haemodialysis. Application of gabapentin during 4 weeks in a dose 300 mg on night diminish intensity of displays of RLS, by reduction of the unpleasant feeling(paresthesias) and improves the indexes of quality of life of patients from RLS, that treat oneself program haemodialysis .
