Representation If Sued, Nursing Legal Issues, Medi-smart.com:"As their professional roles expand, nurses are naturally becoming more vulnerable to the types of lawsuits that have plagued physicians for years. Malpractice is the legal term for negligence by any licensed professional. Case law began recognizing nurses as professionals in the mid-1970s, and has
lately come to see registered nurses as "assertive, decisive healthcare providers," according to a 1985 New York appellate court opinion."

Restless legs: impact and treatment update, Bandolier:"Bandolier has been keeping a quiet eye on restless legs syndrome (RLS). It is common (Bandolier 118), and though Bandolier has looked previously at trials of pergolide (Bandolier 67), those were very small with fewer than 60 patients in three trials. Because RLS is common, and because there are limited therapies available, any pharmaceutical company worth its salt would be looking for the possibility of significant potential sales with an effective drug. This may be happening, because we now have newer, larger, and better trials, and large surveys of the impact of RLS on patients, all funded by pharmaceutical interest in this area."

Restless Legs Syndrome, Diagnostic criteria and common features, Postgraduate Medicine Online:"In 1995, the newly formed International Restless Legs Syndrome Study Group developed criteria for diagnosing restless legs syndrome (3). Four basic elements must be present to make the diagnosis: (1) a desire to move the limbs, often associated with paresthesia or dysesthesia, (2) symptoms exacerbated by rest and relieved by activity, (3) motor restlessness, and (4) nocturnal worsening of symptoms. These and several additional features commonly seen in restless legs syndrome are discussed in the following paragraphs."

Restless legs syndrome (RLS), What is the prognosis? National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS):"RLS is a life-long condition for which there is no cure. Symptoms may gradually worsen with age. Because symptoms are intensified by inactivity and lying down, RLS patients often have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep. Left untreated, RLS causes exhaustion and fatigue, which can affect occupational performance, social activities, and family life."

Restless Legs Syndrome And Periodic Limb Movement Disorder, National Institutes of Health (NIH):"Restless legs syndrome is a common neurological disorder characterized by unpleasant sensations of the legs and an urge to move them for relief. Because symptoms are intensified by inactivity and lying down, RLS patients often have difficulty falling asleep and staying asleep.
Left untreated, RLS causes exhaustion and fatigue, which can affect occupational performance, social activities, and family life. Most prevalence estimates are around 2-5% of the population, although many more may be affected because the disorder is often not diagnosed. Severe RLS is more common in the elderly, affecting an estimated 10-11%, although symptoms may develop at any age. The etiology of RLS probably involves central dopamine mechanisms, and both dopaminergic agents and dopamine agonists have been used to treat symptoms."
