We conducted a literature review of assessment tools predicting
driving performance for people with traumatic brain injury (TBI). METHOD: Data
sources were Web of Science, EBSCOhost, PubMed, and recently published literature
from experts and team members not yet catalogued in the databases. We used the
American Academy of Neurology's classification criteria to extract data from 13
studies, and we assigned a class (I-IV, with I being the highest level of
evidence) to each study. We grouped primary studies into categories of driving
assessment (neuropsychological; simulator; off-road; self-report, other report,
and postinjury disability status; and comprehensive driving evaluation) and
synthesized the predictability of these tools as it relates to driving
performance for people with TBI. CONCLUSIONS. To assist clinicians and
researchers in making decisions regarding testing the driving performance of
people with TBI, we provide recommendations for neuropsychological tests;
off-road tests; self-report, other report, and postinjury disability status; and
comprehensive driving evaluation.
