Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (PLMD) is a neurological condition characterized by involuntary leg movements during sleep, which disrupt sleep and lead to daytime fatigue. Often linked with other disorders like Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), PLMD can worsen overall sleep quality and cognitive function. Diagnosing PLMD typically involves a polysomnography (PSG) sleep study, but new innovations like Wesper Lab offer a convenient, at-home screening tool to detect potential PLMD. Wesper uses biosensor technology to monitor leg movements and provide valuable insights for early detection, making it an accessible option for healthcare providers to improve patient outcomes.
