Investigating the Effect of Temperature Therapy on the Severity of Restless Legs Syndrome: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Conclusion: The present study findings suggested temperature therapy could mildly reduce the severity of RLS symptoms. It was also found that the highest efficacy of this intervention could be achieved when the higher temperature was used in fewer treatment sessions in hemodialysis patients. Based on our findings, this intervention can be included in the care plan of patients with RLS considering the settings described to achieve the highest efficacy.PMID:38296642 | DOI:10.3121/cmr.2023.1824
