ABSTRACT

Movement abnormalities, by definition, and cognitive changes, to varying extents, affect every patient with Parkinson's disease (PD) and are attributed to the underlying neurodegenerative disease. Various psychiatric disorders occur in most patients at some point over the course of PD, including in the prodromal phase. Even though psychiatric disturbances tend to aggravate motor and cognitive deficits, they are under-recognized and under-treated, and the role of the underlying neurological disease is often minimized. To provide an integrated approach to understanding neuropsychiatric aspects of PD, this chapter reviews how cognitive changes in PD relate to the common psychiatric disturbances in PD along with the prevalence, phenomenology, pathophysiology, and treatment of each.
