Patients with Parkinson have working memory changes, so they need rehabilitation and treatment is required for them. The purpose of current study is to determine the effect of neuro-cognitive rehabilitation computerized test on these impairments. The present cross-sectional study was conducted on 120 patients with Parkinson and neuro-cognitive rehabilitation computerized test were used for assessment (before) and rehabilitation (after) in patients in 15 minutes. Before and after neuro-cognitive rehabilitation, a significant difference was identified in neuro-cognitive rehabilitation computerized test’ scores (P<0.000). This technique can rehab in Parkinson with working memory disorders associated with neurological conditions to facilitate the acquisition.
