Q

Clock drawing test

A

Screens long-term memory, short-term memory, visual perception, visuospatial skills, selective attention, abstract thinking, executive skills

65+ years

Score of 6-7 = pass
Score if 5= questionable
Score if 4 or less = fail

Errors are considered abnormal and linked to increased crash risk

Q

Maze test

A

Purpose is to screen driving for older adults with mci or early dementia

Screens visual perception,visuospatial skills, abstract thinking, executive skills (planning and foresight)

Older adults

Timed out at 3 minutes

61 seconds or longer with/without errors = not safe to drive
60 seconds or less, 2+ errors = not safe
60 seconds or less, 0-1 errors = has those skills needed for driving

Document:
Was maze completed
Time in seconds
# of errors

Q

Mvpt

A

Figure ground, spatial orientation, visual memory, visual closure, processing speed

3+ years old

3+ errors on visual closer = 3.75x greater chance of at fault crash
5 errors on visual closure = 5 c greater chance of at fault crash

Q

Letter or number cancellation

A

Visual attention and scanning

May be helpful to identify risk in older adults

Less than 2 missed = satisfactory
More than 2 missed = unsatisfactory

Document errors, time (concern if >5 minutes), pattern, etc

23
Q

Cognitive linguistics quick test (QLQT)

A

Attention, memory, executive function, language, visuospatial skills

No direct link to driving performance

24
Q

Visual search skills for driving

A

App to use in clinic to help find critical info only

25
Drive safe drive aware
Clinical assessment tool Gives pass/fail score
26
UFOV
Visual processing speed, divided attention, selective attention Score 1-5 = low risk 5 = high risk Not valid with vision worse than 20/70 or visual field deficits
27
Vision coach
Find and touch light Visual scanning, visual processing, visual motor response
28
Dynavision
Helpful with visual field loss to determine processing speed, impact from impairment and overall accommodation
29
Night time fatality rate compared to day time
2.5-3x
30
Glare recovery scores
Good: 2-5 seconds Poor: 6+ seconds
31
Good visual lead time
12-14 seconds
32
Driving skill difficulties observed with impairment in spatial relationships
Left and right neglect difficulty on angles and curves Judging objects Too wide or short turns/hitting curbs
33
Signs of ocular fatigue
Blurry, watery, or itchy eyes
34
Medical conditions that impact glare recovery
Cataracts Diabetic retinopathy
35
On the road challenges with impaired contrast sensitivity
Difficulty finding curbs Changes in road surface (I.e. wet or icy) Gradient changes Delayed reaction time
36
On the road challenges with impaired convergence/divergence
Misjudging an approaching object/object moving away
37
UFOV decline with impairment in processing speed
50%
38
UFOV decline with impairment in processing speed and sensitivity to distraction (impaired attn)
80%
39
UFOV decline with impairment in processing speed, sustained attention, and divided attention
90%
40
Age for UFOV research with driving
55+ years
41
Visual reaction differential response
Measures attn, concentration, and reaction time Uses computer and joystick Looks at each visual quadrant
42
Visual reaction differential response- reversed
Same on vrdr except moving joystick the opposite way Assesses atttn, concentration, reaction time, dynamic cognitive processing, and decision making Uses radio as a distracter
43
Visual reaction differential response II
Quick decision making, attn, concentration, reaction time
44
Visual scanning III
Assesses Attention shifting
45
Wechler adult intelligence scale- revised picture completion
Concentration, visual alertness, visual scanning, attn to detail, ability to differentiate essential from non-essential details
46
Normal age related changes to eyes/vision
Decreased pupil size and 1/3 of light getting to eyes Fewer cells in retina and optic pathways lead to less contrast and details Lens hardens leads to less accommodation/near sightedness(presbyopia) Sclera yellows Decreased depth perception Decreased visual acuity Increased glare Altered color perception (blue/violet look more like green)
47
Vision at age 50
Good far acuity Decreased near acuity More sensitivity to glare Decreased depth perception
48
Vision at age 60
Slight decrease in far acuity Decreased ability to distinguish blues and greens
49
Vision age 70
Diminished peripheral vision Decreased night vision Longer glare recovery
50
Other functional impacts of glaucoma and crash risk
Increased risk of falls (due to meds for glaucoma) Males are 1.7x more likely to crash
51
Legally blind definition
20/200 or less with correction
52
Blind by loss of visual fields
Visual field in better seeing eye <20* Even if visual acuity is better than 20/200
53
