treatment. This study aimed to determine the awareness, attitude and knowledge of family physicians about RLS.
Material and Method: This cross-sectional study completed by 384 (96%) out of 400 physicians who have been working in family health centers in central towns of İzmir. A questionnaire was applied to the physicians to investigate the awareness and the acquirements of them about RLS. The questionnaire included questions investigating how frequently the physician encounters
RLS, how she/he manages the patient, participation of the physician in training activities after graduation about RLS, diagnosis codes she/he prefers, demographic data of the physician and her/his level of knowledge about RLS. The data were gathered with face to face interview in her/his
office atmosphere by applying questionnaire and evaluated by SPSS 15.0 program. When evaluating the data Chi-Square and Independent Samples t Test with One-Way ANOVA were used and founded that p<0.05, accepted as
significant.
Results: The mean age of physicians was 43.21±7.00 and 60.2% (231) were men and the career period was 18.90±6.24 years. Of the physicians, 94% (361) did not participate in any educational program about RLS, and
50.3% (193) never diagnosed RLS. The mean knowledge score of the physicians was 2.70±2.05. Women gender, physicians who participated in any educational program after graduation and the ones who have diagnosis of RLS of herself/himself and/or relatives had significantly higher
scores of knowledge.
Discussion: Even though some of the physicians had higher knowledge scores, the scores were low in general. It would be useful for family physicians to be reminded of both about diagnosis and management of RLS.
