NCT ID: NCT06437665 Not yet recruiting - Older Adults Clinical Trials

Tech-wise Driver (Technology Acceptance of Targeted ADAS for Older Adults)

Start date: June 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The tech-wise driver: Exploring the sustained efficacy and technology acceptance of targeted ADAS for older drivers A significant percentage of road traffic fatalities registered in Canada occurred among older adults. According to the studies, the Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) can enhance the safety and mitigate the age-related declines of older drivers. Whether sustained use results in declines in driving performance in older drivers relying on ADAS remains largely unexplored. This is problematic given emerging evidence on ADAS use by older drivers. Furthermore, exploring changes in ADAS technology acceptance in relation to sustained use can inform the correlation between perceived safety and intention to use. The investigators hypothesize that, compared to driving simulator training alone, lane departure warning (LDW), cruise control (CC), and forward proximity warning (FPW) technology will result in a sustained decrease of critical driving errors in this population; and that exposure to the technology will increase participants' perceived usability and ease of use. To achieve this goal, the investigators will explore the determination of sustained efficacy, establish the impact of technology exposure, evaluate the concurrent validity of a computerized model of driving error type and severity using trained occupational therapy in-vehicle evaluation as the criterion, when evaluating older drivers 'performance. Our findings may significantly impact the ability of older drivers to choose in-vehicle technologies, and our study will be the first to assess the criterion validity of a simulator-derived computerized model against the findings of an evaluator-based functional assessment.

NCT ID: NCT06303765 Recruiting - Stroke, Acute Clinical Trials

Evaluating the Practice Resource for Driving After Stroke

Start date: February 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

After stroke, individuals must be assessed to determine if they can resume driving. Return to driving is very important to people who have experienced a stroke. Unfortunately, health care providers face challenges in addressing driving after stroke. Common issues include being unsure of the best screening practices, difficulty discussing driving with patients, and challenges making informed recommendations about driving that balance the risk of public safety along with supporting patient goals. Occupational Therapists (OTs) are health care providers that provide screening, assessment, and intervention for driving to individuals who have had a stroke. OTs working in stroke care have highlighted the urgency for evidence-based resources to support practice to address driving with patients. The Practice Resource for Driving After Stroke (PReDAS), is an evidenced-based resource to support the clinical practice of OTs in addressing driving in acute stroke settings. A previous pilot study has demonstrated that the PReDAS is considered useful by both health care providers and patients. Further study is needed to evaluate how the PReDAS can support OTs in addressing driving with patients. The current study proposes to provide the PReDAS as an intervention to OTs working in acute stroke settings to see if the intervention increases OT's self efficacy and clinical reasoning for addressing driving. The study will take repeated measures of self-efficacy and clinical reasoning among participating OTs to determine if the PReDAS intervention supports improved self-efficacy and clinical reasoning.

NCT ID: NCT04059289 Completed - Pseudophakia Clinical Trials

Intermediate Vision in a Driving Simulator Environment: Comparison of the J&J EYHANCE With a Conventional Monofoc. IOL

JJ-EYHANCE
Start date: January 7, 2020
Phase:
Study type: Observational

To compare (low contrast) visual acuity (VA) and contrast sensitivity (CS) - both at intermediate distances under nighttime driving conditions in a driving simulator between patients with bilateral EYHANCE IOLs OR bilateral conventional monofocal IOLs. Visual function testing in the driving simulator will be assessed without AND with (static) glare. Additionally: Assessment of individual response times, scanpath characteristics, evaluation of test retest reliability and self-evaluation of (intermediate) vision and visual impairment related to glare.

NCT ID: NCT03893006 Recruiting - Neuroimaging Clinical Trials

Vehicle Automation Impact on Drivers

AUTODRIVE
Start date: October 8, 2019
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In the context of ever-increasing automation in surface vehicles, automation impact on drivers will be investigated through three complementary research axes undertaken under simulated driving: Axe 1 (Cognitive ergonomics), how automation is impacting driving behaviors and visual explorations? Axe 2 (Experimental psychology), how automation is impacting drivers' mental representations of their own driving abilities? Axe 3 (Neuroimaging), how automation is modifying the car driving neural network? And what are drivers' mental representations neural bases? The project tackle both applied and basic research issues using an original experimental neuro ergonomics approach. AUTODRIVE will bring original data on human-machine cooperation, mental representations, cognitive control and brain processes depending on the characteristics of the automation used over a significant period of time (six weeks) on a large sample (N=120) of experienced and inexperienced drivers.

NCT ID: NCT02280148 Completed - Driving Clinical Trials

Accessing the Driving Skills After the Endoscopy of Intravenous Anesthesia by Driving Simulator

Start date: November 2013
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The purpose of this study is to assess the driving and cognitive ability of gastrointestinal endoscopy patients at different time points after intravenous anesthesia (propofol for example), and to explore whether the driving and cognitive ability have a relationship with the blood concentration of propofol or not.

NCT ID: NCT00559819 Completed - Impairment Clinical Trials

Validation of Driving Simulator to Blood Alcohol Concentration Standards for Impaired Driving

ALCDrive
Start date: February 2008
Phase: Phase 3
Study type: Interventional

The proposed study will validate and determine sensitivity of our new driving simulator, created to evaluate driving ability in a related study to show similar driving performance between patients on chronic opioid treatment and a control group. Although the commercial version of the simulator has been validated for certain populations and certain measures, these require re-calibration for our own clinical study. The investigators propose a prospective randomized clinical trial to evaluate driving skills under alcohol consumption using a driving simulator. Two groups of study subjects will be utilized, with the majority (80%) receiving alcohol and placebo at different times. A smaller set of study subjects (20%) will be given placebo on both trials to evaluate learning effects and placebo blinding effectiveness. Each group will take the driving test at three time points: once as a baseline at the beginning of the study, once after the 1st dosing of the placebo and again after dosing two of the alcohol or placebo beverage. This information will allow us to evaluate driving ability under other potentially impairing conditions such as opioid usage.
