Executive function is present in most of dairy activities, so it influences in quality of life. Executive performances in bipolar disorder type I can change in function of clinical phase that patient is. The aim of this work is to review the studies that have investigated executive function during asymptomatic phase in bipolar disorder type I. It has been analyzed 37 scientific articles that examine executive performance in euthymic patients with bipolar disorder type I. It can be concluded that bipolar patients in asymptomatic phase suffer executive difficulties, but it doesn’t seem to exist consensus regarding the type of deficits. This lack of agreement could be due to methodological diversity in studies, as well as the influence of different clinical or pharmacological variables. Executive alterations in euthymic phase are lower than the acute phases in bipolar disorder and affect mainly to processing speed. Executive deficits in patients could be linked to possible functional alterations in prefrontal cortex, as well as the psychopharmacological effect. It would be specially relevant treatment in bipolar disorder keep in mind this alterations, which it can get it with a neurocognitive approach within integrate treatment.
