A scoping review finds inconsistent driving fitness evaluations in patients with brain tumours, suggesting a need for standardized guidelines.
Driving fitness assessment in patients with brain tumour is inconsistent in Canada, shaped by reliance on seizure history, heterogeneous provincial legislation, and lack of tumour-specific standards. Evidence supports a multidisciplinary, function-focused approach to driving fitness assessment that incorporates structured evaluation with ongoing reassessment. Development of national, brain-tumour specific guidelines is needed to ensure clear and safe decision-making for this patient population.
