Podcasts about Restless legs syndrome

Restless legs syndrome used to feel simple. If the legs were jumping, we reached for a dopamine agonist, the safer alternative to older meds. Over time, we learned that the very medication calming symptoms could make the condition worse. But just as guidelines changed in favor of gabapentin and related medications, new research raised concerns about the medications link to cognitive decline and dementia. So where does that leave patients? In this episode, we will:Define restless legs syndrome and review why dopamine agonists became the standard treatment in the first placeExplain augmentation and rebound in plain language, and why it led to guideline reconsiderationWalk through the AASM's updated recommendations and why gabapentinoids are now considered first-line therapyExamine the recent study linking gabapentin exposure to increased dementia and mild cognitive impairment riskDiscuss what observational research can and cannot tell us about causationCompare the real-world risks of dopamine agonists versus the emerging safety signals around gabapentinExplore how these recommendations may be interpreted differently by sleep specialists versus primary care providersHighlight the “rock and hard place” many patients feel caught in when every option carries caveatsReview practical strategies: iron optimization, careful dosing, monitoring for augmentation, and individualized careOffer a balanced framework for making thoughtful, evidence-based decisions without panic or oversimplificationProduced by: Maeve WinterMore Twitter: @drchriswinter IG: @drchriwinter Threads: @drchriswinter Bluesky: @drchriswinter The Sleep Solution and The Rested Child Thanks for listening and sleep well!

Charles was living a full life when Parkinson's disease hit. Although a progressive neurodegenerative disease affecting movement, there are many medical treatments available to help with symptom management. While Levadopa, the standard of care treatment helped Charles with his symptoms of tremor, he was unable to tolerate it due to the extreme Restless Legs Syndrome he developed. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS) surgery and treatment at the Movement Disorders Center at Pacific Neuroscience Institute, has saved his life and put him on a new trajectory full of movement and joy.

We dive into the evolving landscape of treatment for restless legs syndrome (RLS) with neurologist Andrew Spector. For decades, patients have been prescribed dopamine agonists like ropinirole and pramipexole, often unaware that these medications could worsen their symptoms over time. Andrew discusses the new clinical practice guidelines from the American Academy of Sleep Medicine, which mark a significant shift in RLS treatment and offer hope for better alternatives. Learn about the risks of long-term dopamine agonist use, patient experiences, and promising new therapies. Andrew Spector is a neurologist. He discusses the KevinMD article, "The unexpected truth about restless legs syndrome treatments." Our presenting sponsor is DAX Copilot by Microsoft.

Welcome to the NeurologyLive® Mind Moments® podcast. Tune in to hear leaders in neurology sound off on topics that impact your clinical practice. In this episode, Andy Berkowski, MD, PhD, founder of Relax Health, sat down to discuss the American Academy of Sleep Medicine's (AASM) recently published guideline update for the treatment of restless legs syndrome (RLS). Berkowski, who serves as a vice chair of the AASM's Practice Guidelines Task Force, provided clinical insight on the reasons behind the guidelines, pointing to the vast research advances and literature updates since its last iteration in 2012. Additionally, he touched on the greatest changes to the guidelines, noting things like the shift away from dopaminergic agents, the importance of iron in RLS pathophysiology, and the use of alpha-2-delta ligands and intravenous iron as first-line treatments. Berkowski also shared thoughts on how the guidelines impact care for patients of all ages, sexes, and RLS subtypes, as well as some of the more troubling parts of the guidelines to write and areas that were left unanswered. Furthermore, he gave his thoughts on how these guidelines will transform care going forward, including accelerating conversations on preventing RLS in many cases in the near future.

Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a unique and relatively common sleep disorder that quietly affects the sleep of 15% of individuals (by some generous accounts). Despite its initial description dating back to 1672, it still remains somewhat of a mystery--suffered miserably by many but often missed as a sleep diagnosis. In this episode, we will:learn the unusual history of the multiple 'discoveries' of RLSgive an overview of the symptoms of RLS and the varied ways in which they are described and experienceddissect the diagnostic criteria of RLSdifferentiate primary RLS from secondary RLSlist the risk factors for RLS including low iron, pregnancy, and certain medicationsdiscuss the treatments (both medicinal and non) of RLS including weighted blankets

Pramipexole (Mirapex) is a dopamine agonist that can be used in Parkinson's disease and Restless Legs Syndrome. Dopamine agonists like pramipexole can worsen psychiatric symptoms in some patients by causing hallucinations, and obsessive/compulsive symptoms. Nausea, vomiting, hypotension, and fatigue are the most common adverse effects of pramipexole. Pramipexole is primarily eliminated through the urine. I discuss how this matters clinically in greater detail in this podcast episode.

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is an unusual condition of the nervous system characterised by the compelling need to move the legs. It is usually worse in the evening and can be a problem when trying to sleep. About the causes, symptoms and treatments of the RLS, Aleksandar Zivkovic spoke with the Dr Velibor Todorovic from Sydney. - Шта је синдром немирних ногу, како га препознати и лечити - сазнајте више у разговору Александра Живковића са др Велибором Тодоровићем.

Do you have the urge to move your legs, typically in the evening before bed? Dr. Chris Jones, a neurologist and expert on sleep and movement disorders, says the cause of restless legs syndrome remains a mystery. It is difficult to treat the neurological condition and can easily be made worse if not treated well. Dr. Jones talks about this unusual condition, why it occurs, and how it can be treated.
