- Definition(s)
- Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a disorder of the part of the nervous system that affects movements of the legs. Because it usually interferes with sleep, it also is considered a sleep disorder.
* People with RLS have strange sensations in their legs (and sometimes arms) and an irresistible urge to move their legs to relieve the sensations.
* The sensations are difficult to describe: they are not painful, but an uncomfortable, "itchy," "pins and needles," or "creepy crawly" feeling deep in the legs.
* The sensations are usually worse at rest, especially when lying in bed.
* The sensations lead to walking discomfort, sleep deprivation, and stress. WebMD, Inc.
- Example sentence(s)
- Symptomatic restless legs syndrome may occur secondary to iron deficiency, anemia, folate deficiency, uremia, thyroid problems, diabetes, or peripheral neuropathy. - WE MOVE
by - Restless legs syndrome may be triggered by peripheral neuropathy or radiculopathy, but a distinction should be made between these disorders. In pure peripheral neuropathy and radiculopathy, patients do not have the compelling need to move to relieve leg discomfort and the symptoms are not consistently worse at rest or at night. - EMIS & PiP
by - Restless legs syndrome can begin at any age and generally worsens as you get older. Women are more likely than men to develop this condition. Restless legs syndrome can disrupt sleep — leading to daytime drowsiness — and make travelling difficult. - Mayo Foundation for Medical Education

- síndrome de les cames inquietes (SCI)
- Additional fields of expertise
- Definition(s)
- La síndrome de les cames neguitoses o síndrome de les cames inquietes (o RLS, per les seves sigles en anglès) és un trastorn neurològic caracteritzat per sensacions desagradables en les cames i un impuls incontrolable de moure's quan s'està descansant, en un esforç per a alleujar aquestes sensacions. Les persones sovint descriuen les sensacions del RLS com cremants, com si alguna cosa se'ls jalara o se'ls llisqués, o com si insectes grimpessin per l'interior de les seves cames. Aquestes sensacions, sovint anomenades parestèsies (sensacions anormals) o disestèsies (sensacions anormals desagradables), varien en gravetat de desagradables a irritants, a doloroses.

- Example sentence(s)
- La Síndrome de les Cames Inquietes (SCI) consisteix en una sensació molesta i constant a les cames que només s'alleuja en moure-les. A aquesta síndrome va lligada una altra alteració anomenada Moviments Periòdics de les Cames (MPP) en la qual els afectats mouen inconscientment de manera repetida les cames mentre dormen, com si donessin puntades de peu. El SCI associat als MPP representa una de les causes d'insomni i disrupció del son més freqüents en la nostra societat. De fet, fins a un 25% dels afectats pel SCI busca atenció mèdica. Tot i això, els metges i la població amb prou feines han sentit parlar del SCI. Això explica perquè els pacients perden una mitjana de 5 anys de metge en metge intentant aclarir les seves molèsties a les cames que no els deixa agafar el son. És per això que el SCI és conegut com "la síndrome més freqüent de la qual ningú no ha sentit parlar". D’altra banda, és ben conegut que els subjectes amb anèmia per falta de ferro tenen molt freqüentment el SCI. També se sap que la meitat dels pacients amb SCI tenen un familiar de primer grau amb la mateixa síndrome, una dada que suggereix que existeix una connexió amb la genètica.

Aquesta síndrome consisteix en una sensació molesta a les cames que no se'n va fins que es mouen les extremitats i està associada als moviments periòdics de cames, una altra patologia en què els afectats mouen inconscientment les cames de manera repetida mentre s'adormen, com si donessin puntades de peu. - 3cat24.cat

Mr. sc. Dean Delić, dr. med.
Sindrom nemirnih nogu je čest neurološki poremećaj koji se prvi puta spominje u 17. stoljeću, a 1944. opisao ga je Karl A. Ekomb i od tada je poznat pod današnjim nazivom (ponekad se naziva i Ekbomov sindrom).
Karakteriziran je neugodnim senzacijama u nogama i potrebom za pomicanjem nogu. Navedene senzacije različito se opisuju pa se često spominje mravinjanje, gmizanje, bockanje, trzanje, grčenje, trnjenje ili čak bolne senzacije koje izazivaju prekomjernu potrebu za pomicanjem nogu.
Simptomi se uglavnom javljaju ili pogoršavaju tijekom večernjih sati. Kretanje može privremeno ublažiti simptome kao i masaža i stavljanje hladnih obloga.
Iako vrlo čest, sindrom nemirnih nogu još je uvijek slabo prepoznat i često pogrešno dijagnosticiran. CyberMed - by Lingua 5B
