{ "item_title" : "Restless Legs Syndrome - RLS and Healthy Sleep", "item_author" : [" Khosro Hekmat "], "item_description" : "Sleeping soundly again - at last? Nine out of ten people with restless legs syndrome struggle to fall asleep or to stay asleep. Disturbed sleep is the main burden of the condition, and it is the reason most patients seek help at all. This volume takes it seriously: as a reason for treatment, not as a fate. Step by step it explains what RLS does to the body at night, how disturbed sleep is assessed - from the consultation to the sleep laboratory - and what brings it back: from sleep hygiene through warmth, movement and devices to the medicines of the 2024 and 2025 guidelines. Every recommendation comes with a statement of how certain the knowledge behind it is. The volume ends with a practical road map for the evening and a chapter on the day after: how to cope with tiredness while the nights are not yet better.
