Abstract

Nearly 30%–50% of people living with HIV (PLWH) have HIV-Associated Neurocognitive Disorder. With half of PLWH being 50 and older, concerns mount that the prevalence and severity of neurocognitive impairment will increase with age. Yet, neurocognitive functioning can impact driving safety in older adults, but may also impact driving in older PLWH. Impairment in the neurocognitive domains utilized in driving may put PLWH at risk for decreased mobility that impacts their treatment adherence and quality of life. This study is the first to examine the driving habits of PLWH 40+ years and determine whether impairment in particular neurocognitive domains are predictive of driving habits.
