Diagnostic criteria defined for diagnosis of RLS by International Restless Legs Society, (last revision 2014).

1	An irresistible urge to move the legs, usually but not always accompanied by uncomfortable and unpleasant sensations in the legs
2	Symptoms that begin or worsen during the periods of inactivity, such as lying down or sitting
3	Symptoms are partially or totally relieved by movement
4	Symptoms only occur and are worse in the evening or night than during the day
5	The occurrence of the described features is not solely accounted for as symptoms primary to another medical or a behavioral condition (myalgia, venous stasis, leg edema, arthritis, leg cramps, positional discomfort, habitual foot tapping). The criteria published earlier in 2003 lacks the 5th criteria.
