Abstract
This study shows that the index and the nocturnal pattern of PLM occurrence are highly reliable across nights in RLS patients, suggesting that a single-night study may be sufficiently sensitive to confirm diagnosis and associated sleep disturbances in these patients. However, an individual inter-night variability is present, independent of age, severity and duration of the disease, which should be considered in the clinical evaluation.
