Integrating statistical findings based on Motor Vehicle Department accident data and survey data with comprehensive interviews and discussions with elderly drivers. the book provides an emperically grounded.

Book Synopsis Multiple Medications and Vehicle Crashes by :
Download or read book Multiple Medications and Vehicle Crashes written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 2 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The number of older adults is expected to increase dramatically in the next 25 years and with it, an increase in both the number of older drivers and the amount of driving within this age group. With the aging of the American population, concern arises regarding potential increases in rates of crash involvement and injury. Age-related factors may impair driving ability, such as age-related decrements in cognitive and physical functioning, increased prevalence of medical conditions or age-related medical conditions, and increased use of multiple medications. Using population databases, this study analyzed the association of the impairing effects of multiple medication use, drug interactions, and drug disease interactions on motor vehicle crashes (MVC) in individuals age 50 years and greater. Methodology: The main objectives of this study were to determine the relative frequency of various combinations of medications used by those who have experienced a MVC and those who have not by analyzing proprietary and non-proprietary databases; and to conduct a case-control study of possible associations between the use of medications (and combinations thereof) and MVCs amongst older drivers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging and currently available technologies offer great promise for helping older adults, even those without serious disabilities, to live healthy, comfortable, and productive lives. What technologies offer the most potential benefit? What challenges must be overcome, what problems must be solved, for this promise to be fulfilled? How can federal agencies like the National Institute on Aging best use their resources to support the translation from laboratory findings to useful, marketable products and services? Technology for Adaptive Aging is the product of a workshop that brought together distinguished experts in aging research and in technology to discuss applications of technology to communication, education and learning, employment, health, living environments, and transportation for older adults. It includes all of the workshop papers and the report of the committee that organized the workshop. The committee report synthesizes and evaluates the points made in the workshop papers and recommends priorities for federal support of translational research in technology for older adults.
