Study of Clinical Features and Symptom Changes in Adults with Restless Legs Syndrome

What this Trial Is About

Researchers are investigating the clinical features and progression of Restless Legs Syndrome RLS, a chronic neurological condition causing an urge to move the legs at night, leading to sleep problems, daytime sleepiness, and reduced quality of life. This observational study aims to assess how RLS symptom severity changes over time in relation to different RLS types, other health conditions, and medications used by patients, involving members of French and European RLS associations. The study does not involve experimental treatments but observes patients who are already diagnosed with RLS and are members of patient associations. It will collect clinical and biological data as well as information on current RLS medications. The study will measure symptom severity and related impacts using various rating scales and questionnaires during scheduled assessments. Participants will be asked to complete several rating scales including the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group rating scale and questionnaires assessing sleep issues, depression, quality of life, and fall risk. The study will monitor these measures over time to understand symptom progression. Participants must be adults, able to communicate in French, and affiliated with social security. The study duration extends through to 2027, with ongoing data collection and follow-up.
