Efficacy of Vibration Therapy on Restless Legs Syndrome and Sleep Disturbances Among Patients Undergoing Hemodialysis
Sponsor: Amjed Abdulabbas Shraida
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if whether vibration therapy relieves the intensity of Restless legs syndrome (RLS) symptoms and sleep disturbances among patients undergoing hemodialysis. The main question it aims to answer is: Is there a difference in the levels of legs restless syndrome and sleep disturbances between hemodialysis patients who receive vibration therapy and those who do not receive it? Researcher will compare the levels of legs restless syndrome and sleep disturbances between hemodialysis patients who receive vibration therapy and those who do not receive it to see if vibration therapy works to relieve the levels of legs restless syndrome and sleep disturbances. Participants will take vibration therapy applied on the calf muscle for 10 minutes per session, 2 times per week for total one month, during the first hour of each hemodialysis sessions.
