The standard protocol for RLS detection recommended by the International Consensus Criteria was followed. Each patient was examined at rest and after Valsalva maneuver in 4 positions: supine, right lateral decubitus, right lateral leaning, and upright sitting, in random order. RLS was graded 0 (no microbubbles [mB] detected), 1 (1\u201310 mB), 2 (&gt;10 mB but no curtain), and 3 (curtain, shower of mB). Blood pressure, heart rate, and neurological symptoms were monitored. Data were analyzed using SPSS version 17.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Results\u2014<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>\n              RLS was detected in at least 1 position in 89 of 240 patients (37.1%; 95% CI, 33.1%\u201343.3%). The detection of at least 1 mB with normal breathing was lowest in supine position and highest in right lateral decubitus. With Valsalva maneuver, this was highest in upright sitting (20.4% versus 8.3%;\n              <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n              &lt;0.0002). If mB were undetected on upright sitting position, then they may still be detected in other positions. Changes in the position of the body and the injection of agitated saline were well-tolerated.\n            <\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Conclusions\u2014<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>RLS is best detected in the upright sitting position with Valsalva maneuver.
