The development of a test battery to assess the hand–eye functions relevant in predicting easy and accurate tablet subdivision in older people: A pilot study

Aims Tablets may be subdivided for dose adaptations or to ease swallowing. The handling is common in older patients but can be difficult and inaccurate. Currently, it is not known which hand–eye functions determine the ability of older people to break tablets by hand and to do so with acceptable ease and accuracy. The aim of this study was to develop a test battery to assess the hand–eye functions relevant in predicting easy and accurate tablet...
