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

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
Q

Drive safe drive aware

A

Clinical assessment tool

Gives pass/fail score

26
Q

UFOV

A

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
Q

Vision coach

A

Find and touch light

Visual scanning, visual processing, visual motor response

28
Q

Dynavision

A

Helpful with visual field loss to determine processing speed, impact from impairment and overall accommodation

29
Q

Night time fatality rate compared to day time

A

2.5-3x

30
Q

Glare recovery scores

A

Good: 2-5 seconds
Poor: 6+ seconds

31

Too wide or short turns/hitting curbs

33
Q

Signs of ocular fatigue

A

Blurry, watery, or itchy eyes

34
Q

Medical conditions that impact glare recovery

A

Cataracts
Diabetic retinopathy

35
Q

A

90%

40
Q

A

55+ years

41
Q

A

Measures attn, concentration, and reaction time
Uses computer and joystick
Looks at each visual quadrant

42
Q

A

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
