Evidence Report: 2010 Update: Diabetes and Commercial Motor Vehicle Driver Safety

This report is an update to a systematic evidence review titled ―Diabetes and Commercial Motor Vehicle Driver Safety (Expedited Review)‖ dated September 8, 2006. This update evaluated the same questions and used the same eligibility criteria, with the exception of slightly revised criteria for Key Question 2 (details of the modified criteria are outlined below). The updated literature search was conducted through November 4, 2010. The primary focus of the updated report (like that of the original report) is on the risks to driver safety from the acute risks associated with diabetes mellitus (e.g., hypoglycemia). This report does not address driver safety issues related to chronic complications of diabetes (e.g., diabetic nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, and/or cardiovascular conditions resulting from the long-term complications of diabetes).
