Apathy has become a very important symptom to bear in mind in Parkinson's disease patients as it has significant repercussions on the quality of life of the patient. It is very important to do a differential diagnosis with the depression and the cognitive deficit since the therapeutic approach is different. Specific scales to measure this symptom should be included in the evaluation protocols of cognitive function in Parkinson's disease.
