Zusammenfassung

Background: A slight decline in cognitive functions and especially in executive functioning after deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the nucleus subthalamicus (STN) in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) is a common finding. This study evaluated baseline parameters that contribute to a deterioration of cognitive functioning after DBS. Methods: We analyzed the data from the neuropsychological protocol in a randomized controlled study comparing DBS with best medical treatment (BMT). Change scores were calculated for the cognitive domains “global cognitive functioning“, “memory“, “working memory“, “attention“ and “…
