In this study, we aimed to determine the extent of restless legs syndrome (RLS) in pregnant women and evaluate the relationship between the syndrome and quality of life.
This is a cross-sectional descriptive study. A questionnaire developed by the researcher, the Short Form 36 (SF-36) Questionnaire to measure the quality of life, the International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group (IRLSSG) Diagnostic Criteria for RLS and the Restless Legs Syndrome Rating Scale were applied to the women to collect the data. A total of 250 pregnant women were included in the study.
The mean age of the women was 28.11 ± 5.59 years and the mean gestational time was 26.26 ± 10.72 weeks. Symptoms of RLS were seen in 46.4 % of the women. The mean for the RLS Violence Rating Score was 20.82 ± 6.61 for the women with RLS. RLS was found to be mild in 5.2 % of the women, moderate in 45.7 %, severe in 40.5 % and very severe in 8.6 %. A statistically significant effect of RLS survival on quality of life was observed.
These results indicate that almost half of the pregnant women in this study experienced RLS, and about half of those with RLS experienced severe or very severe RLS. There is a significant relationship between RLS and six domains of SF-36 (physical, role limitations, pain, general health perception, energy/vitality, and mental health).
在本研究中,我们旨在确定孕妇中不宁腿综合征(RLS)的发生率,并评估该综合征与生活质量之间的关系。
这是一项横断面描述性研究。向这些女性应用了由研究者编制的问卷、用于测量生活质量的简短健康调查问卷36项版本(SF - 36)、国际不宁腿综合征研究组(IRLSSG)的RLS诊断标准以及不宁腿综合征评定量表来收集数据。共有250名孕妇纳入本研究。
这些女性的平均年龄为28.11±5.59岁,平均孕周为26.26±10.72周。46.4%的女性出现RLS症状。RLS女性的暴力评定量表平均得分为20.82±6.61。发现5.2%的女性RLS为轻度,45.7%为中度,40.5%为重度,8.6%为极重度。观察到RLS对生活质量有统计学上显著影响。
这些结果表明,本研究中几乎一半的孕妇患有RLS,并且患有RLS的孕妇中约一半经历了重度或极重度RLS。RLS与SF - 36的六个领域(身体、角色限制、疼痛、总体健康感知、精力/活力和心理健康)之间存在显著关系。
