Although briefly covered in neurology texts, until now there has been no professional-level publication dedicated solely to restless legs syndrome (RLS). Written by a panel of experts, Restless Legs Syndrome focuses on the diagnosis and management of RLS. The authors discuss the epidemiology of RLS, pathophysiology and clinical associations, and clinical features. They also explore how to correctly diagnose the many different types of patients who present with this disorder. Its discussions of the wide range of treatment options available gives clinicians the information they need to formulate appropriate pharmacological or non-pharmacological therapeutic regimens.
