Role of vehicle assistive devices for safe return to driving after severe acquired brain injury.

CONCLUSIONS: Although the literature on return to driving after brain injury focuses mainly on cognitive- behavioural impairment, in a significant percentage of cases it is also necessary to carefully analyse and manage motor disabilities that may result from sABI. IMPACT OF CLINICAL REHABILITATION: Evaluation of the competences necessary for a return to driving after sABI requires a multiprofessional team that must also assess motor disability and know the possible vehicle assistive devices that can enable most candidates to overcome the limits imposed by their disability.
