dc.description.abstractPurpose Restless leg syndrome (RLS) is a movement disorder which constitutes the most common and major risk group during pregnancy. The purpose of this study was to determine prevalence and severity of RLS during pregnancy and to investigate the effect of RLS on quality of life in pregnant women. Methods This cross-sectional study was conducted in antenatal clinics of four different public hospitals. Data collected were pregnancy assessment form, RLS diagnostic criteria form, RLS severity scale, and SF-12 quality of life scale. Results Among 718 pregnant women, mean age was 28.3 +/- 5.9 years (range 19 to 45). According to the diagnostic criteria of RLS, RLS prevalence was 22% (n=159). of the 159 women with RLS, 41% had moderate severity and 40% had severe RLS. Prevalence of RLS in pregnant women increased with gestational week, working time during pregnancy, weight before pregnancy, total weight gain during pregnancy, and pre-pregnancy body mass index. Physical health scores, physical functioning scores, pain scores, emotional role difficulty scores, and social function scores were significantly lower in the pregnant women with RLS than without RLS (p <0.05). Conclusions Approximately one-fifth of the pregnant women had RLS, mostly in the third trimester, and the severity of RLS was predominantly moderate and severe. Pregnant women with RLS had poorer quality of life than pregnant women without RLS.en_US
