| Popis: | Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a frequent complication of hemodialysis that has been associated with poor quality of life and increased risk for complications. Nevertheless, few studies regarding this entity exist in resource-limited settings. Objectives: To determine the prevalence of RLS among Mexican patients on hemodialysis; and compare these patients with a control group of the same population. Methods: We recruited 105 hemodialysis patients. Restless legs syndrome was diagnosed according to the updated criteria set out by the International RLS Study Group. We selected patients who did not meet the criteria, as controls. Results: We found an RLS prevalence of 18%. The RLS patients had a significantly higher prevalence of iron deficiency anemia and uremic pruritus. None of the patients reported RLS symptoms prior to hemodialysis initiation. Conclusions: Restless legs syndrome is common among Mexican patients on hemodialysis. Larger studies are required to address the impact of RLS in hemodialysis patients. Keywords: Restless legs syndrome; renal dialysis; renal insufficiency. RESUMEN El sindrome de piernas inquietas (SPI) es una complicacion de la hemodialisis que se ha asociado con menor calidad de vida y riesgo aumentado de complicaciones. Sin embargo, existen pocos estudios acerca de esta entidad en escenarios de recursos limitados. Objetivos: Determinar la prevalencia de SPI en pacientes mexicanos en hemodialisis, y comparar las caracteristicas con un grupo control de la misma poblacion. Metodos: Reclutamos 105 pacientes en hemodialisis. El SPI se diagnostico de acuerdo con los criterios actualizados del grupo de estudio internacional del sindrome de piernas inquietas. Seleccionamos a los pacientes que no cumplieron dichos criterios como controles. Resultados: Encontramos una prevalencia de SPI del 18%. Los pacientes con SPI tenian una prevalencia mas alta de anemia ferropenica, y prurito uremico. Ninguno de los pacientes reporto sintomas de SPI previo a iniciar la hemodialisis. Conclusiones: El SPI es frecuente en pacientes mexicanos en hemodialisis; se requieren estudios mas grandes para evaluar el impacto del sindrome en esta poblacion. Palabras-clave: Sindrome de piernas inquietas; dialisis renal; insuficiencia renal. |
