- •
High periodic leg movement (PLM) indices were found in people with many leg movements, even in the absence of periodicity.
- •
The Periodicity Index rather than the PLM index is more specific for restless legs syndrome.
- •
An alternative PLM index calculation is proposed that takes into account this periodicity.
