ABSTRACT

Introduction: Currently, research has focused on finding the neuropsychological profile that distinguishes different subtypes of Mild cognitive impairment (MCI).
Objective: The objective is to describe significant differences in some neuropsychological processes: general level of awareness, attention, memory, language, visuo-perception and executive function between two different subtypes of MCI (multi-domain and dysexecutive).
Methods: 37 patients with MCI of both genders from several private practice heath services of Medellín (Colombia) were selected (ages 40 to 83). Assessments neuropsychological included different tests.
Results: The results showed significant differences between the two subtypes of MCI: the subjects with multi-domain mild cognitive impairment showed lower performance in visual perception, verbal memory and language task, and, contrary to expectations, in executive functions tasks.
Conclusion: These findings are relevant for the neuropsychological intervention and the prevention of the cognitive decline.
