Čoahkkáigeassu:Neuro-enhancement involves using traditional methods or modern technology to boost mental and motivational skills, as well as inducing energy or concentration while minimizing rest, aiming for improved performance in daily tasks. Students are identified as the main users, whether for recreational or academic purposes. This observational and descriptive cross-sectional cohort study was conducted to determine how cognitive enhancers influence the work performance of Rotating Internship students from the “Human Medicine Career at the National University of Loja.” The instruments used were the ASSIST Test (Alcohol, Smoking, and Substance Involvement Screening Test) by WHO to assess the consumption of cognitive enhancers and the Scale of the Ministry of Public Health and Social Welfare of Paraguay to evaluate work performance. The study included 70 students, of whom 77.14% belonged to the age group of 18 to 25 years, with females predominating at 55.71%, followed by males at 21.42%. Among those aged 26 years or older, comprising 22.85% of the sample, females also predominated with 14.28%, followed by males at 8.57%. Alcohol consumption was reported by 77.1%, tobacco use by 88.57%, cannabis use by 7.14%, amphetamines (nootropics) by 14.2%, and caffeine consumption by 50%. Overall, 58.57% demonstrated excellent work performance, while 41.42% registered very good work performance. When integrating both results regarding the influence of cognitive enhancers on work performance, it was found that 8.57% had no risk, 5.71% demonstrated excellent work performance, and 2.85% showed very good work performance. Among the surveyed population, 91.4% exhibited a low risk, of which 51.4% achieved EXCELLENT work performance, compared to 40% who achieved VERY GOOD work performance
