Subscale scores total range:0-100(except sleep quantity[range 0-24 hours], optimal sleep[range 0-1: 0= <7 or >8 hours;1=7/8 hours]). Higher scores=poorer sleep outcomes(except sleep quantity, adequacy). Arithmetic mean of MOS-SS scores of each participant for all periods was taken before linear mixed model analysis.
Week 5 (End of Intervention Period 1), Week 11 (End of Intervention Period 2) and Week 17 (End of Intervention Period 3) or ET
Restless Leg Syndrome - Quality of Life Scale (RLS-QoL)
Time Frame: Week 5 (End of Intervention Period 1), Week 11 (End of Intervention Period 2) and Week 17 (End of Intervention Period 3) or ET
RLS-QoL: psychometrically and clinically valid and reliable participant-rated instrument, assesses impact of RLS on participant quality of life. Specifically, it assessed effects of RLS on health status function (symptom severity, daily activity, social functioning, sleep, concentrating and decision making, travelling, sexual activity, and work) giving a summary score ranging from 0-100. Higher scores reflect better quality of life. Recall period: 1 week prior to assessment. Arithmetic mean of RLS-QoL score of each participant for all periods was taken prior to employing linear mixed model.
Week 5 (End of Intervention Period 1), Week 11 (End of Intervention Period 2) and Week 17 (End of Intervention Period 3) or ET
