Summary

This study; It will be done to evaluate the presence of oxidative stress and its effects on lipid peroxidation products and antioxidant parameters after massage application and the possible effects of the appropriate massage protocol applied to the patients on oxidative stress in hemodialysis patients with restless legs syndrome.

Detailed description

In this study, the following research hypotheses will be tested. H0a: Individuals with restless legs syndrome receiving hemodialysis treatment; In the second hour of hemodialysis, massage applied to both calf muscles for 10 minutes three times a week for one month is not affect the oxidative and antioxidant enzymes of the patients. H1a: Individuals with restless legs syndrome receiving hemodialysis treatment; In the second hour of hemodialysis, massage applied to both calf muscles for 10 minutes three times a week for one month is effective on the oxidative and antioxidant enzymes of the patients.

Conditions
