Abstract

Background & Aim: RESTLESS LEG SYNDROME (RLS) is common complications in patients undergoing HEMODIALYSIS. PROGRESSIVE MUSCLE RELAXATION (PMR) is a method which has been designed for reducing patients’ stress, pain and anxiety. The present study aimed to determine the effect of PMR on the severity of RLS in HEMODIALYSIS patients.Methods & Materials: In this quasi-experimental study (IRCT2015102824769N1), 74 HEMODIALYSIS patients were selected by convenience sampling and divided into intervention and control groups based on records numbers. The intervention group was trained in PMR technique in two half-hour sessions and they were asked to practice it twice a day for one month. RLS severity was measured using the standardized RLS questionnaire. Data were analyzed by descriptive and independent and pairedt -test, analysis of co-variance tests using SPSS software version 23.Results: There was no significant difference in contextual variables between groups before intervention (P>0.05). Before the intervention, RLS severity score was 28.24±7.33 in the intervention group and 25.57±9.85 in the control group (P=0.189). After the intervention, the score for the intervention group was reduced to 10.67±5.66 (P<0.001) while there was no significant change in the control group after the intervention (26.16±9.69). Also, a significant difference was observed between the two groups in the mean score of RLS severity after removing the effect of RLS severity on pretest (P<0.0001).Conclusion: The use of PMR technique reduces RLS severity in HEMODIALYSIS patients. Therefore, this technique is recommended to be used as one of the non-pharmacological methods to improve RLS in these patients.
