Abstract: Background: In Parkinson's Disease (PD) cognitive impairment may become evident at an early stage of the disease. Performance in the visuospatial domain has been pointed out as a possible predictor of cognitive decline for dementia. Objectives: The goal was to characterize the visuospatial memory profile, explore the predictive value of a set of visuospatial measures that better distinguish patients from controls, and investigate the relevance of the 10/36 SPART, providing cutoff scores. Methods: A total of 43 PD patients and 45 healthy controls (HC) were recruited from the Centro Hospitalar Universitário de São João and the community, respectively. The protocol included a set of tests assessing global cognitive functioning, visuoperceptive abilities, and visuospatial memory. Results: PD patients performed significantly worse than HC, showing difficulties in global cognition, visuospatial learning, and visuoconstructive and perceptive abilities. Through a discriminant analysis, the Clock Drawing Test and ACE-R's visuospatial domain were revealed as good tools to be included in the evaluation protocol. Regarding the 10/36 SPART's performance, four predictors were found (age, sex, education, and emotional distress) and cutoff scores were determined. Conclusions: The visuospatial memory profile found was congruent with that described in the literature. The results were discussed according to their relevance for clinical practice and future research. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
