Parkinson s disease (PD) is considered the second most common neurodegenerative disease and its motor characteristics are much better known than non-motor ones, but functional impairment is present in almost all cases. Deep Brain Stimulation (DBS), which consists of electrical stimulation of subcortical structures to decrease or stop motor symptoms, has been used as a tool for greater control of motor symptoms and is gaining ground in studies with non-motor symptoms. It is for this reason that a systematic review was carried out to find out the instruments used in the neuropsychological assessment of people with PD who underwent DBS surgery in subtalamic nuclei (STN) and to investigate whether cognitive effects would arise after surgery. In addition, a computerized neuropsychological battery, the CompCog, was validated for people with PD from a public hospital in the Rio de Janeiro city and was also used to compare ON and OFF stages of 9 patients, from a private clinic, who did the implementation of the DBS-STN. With systematic reviews, it was possible to develop a neuropsychological assessment protocol, later used in empirical studies and to verify that verbal fluency was the aspect that showed the greatest difference between the ON and OFF stages of patients with ECP-NST. In the clinical validation study of CompCog it was possible to establish cutoff points for people with PD and in the comparison study between ON and OFF stages of people with PD and ECP-NST it was possible to identify that the time variables such as mean reaction time and total time, were able to differentiate the two stages, ON and OFF, of the sample of 9 people in the subtests of incidental memory, episodic memory and inhibitory control, in addition to showing a tendency to differentiate in attention, processing speed and episodic memory.
