Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted
the following information collection request to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval in accordance with
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The notice for the proposed
information collection is published to obtain comments from the public
and affected agencies.
Written comments and suggestions from the public and affected
agencies concerning the proposed collection of information are
encouraged. Your comments should address any of the following: (a)
Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have practical utility; (b) Evaluate the
accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of the proposed
collection of information, including the validity of the methodology
and assumptions used; (c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of
the information to be collected; (d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who are to respond, including
through the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or
other technological collection techniques or other forms of information
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses; and
(e) Assess information collection costs.
To request additional information on the proposed project or to
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call
(404) 639-7570 or send an email to [email protected]. Written comments and/or
suggestions regarding the items contained in this notice should be
directed to the Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management and
Budget, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202) 395-5806. Written
comments should be received within 30 days of this notice.
Proposed Project
National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) (OMB No. 0920-0666, Exp.
12/31/2018)--Revision--National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic
Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The National Healthcare Safety Network (NHSN) is a system designed
to accumulate, exchange, and integrate relevant information and
resources among private and public stakeholders to support local and
national efforts to protect patients and promote healthcare safety.
Specifically, the data is used to determine the magnitude of various
healthcare-associated adverse events and trends in the rates of these
events among patients and healthcare workers with similar risks. The
data will be used to detect changes in the epidemiology of adverse
events resulting from new and current medical therapies and changing
risks. The NHSN currently consists of five components: Patient Safety,
Healthcare Personnel Safety, Biovigilance, Long-Term Care Facility
(LTCF), and Dialysis. The Outpatient Procedure Component is on track to
be released in NHSN in 2017/2018. The development of this component has
been previously delayed to obtain additional user feedback and support
from outside partners.
Changes were made to six facility surveys and two new facility
surveys were added. Based on user feedback and internal reviews of the
annual facility surveys it was determined that questions and response
options be amended, removed, or added to fit the evolving uses of the
annual facility surveys. The surveys are being increasingly used to
help intelligently interpret the other data elements reported into
NHSN. Currently the surveys are used to appropriately risk adjust the
numerator and denominator data entered into NHSN while also guiding
decisions on future division priorities for prevention.
Further, three new forms were added to expand NHSN surveillance to
pediatric ventilator-associated events, adult sepsis, and custom HAI
event surveillance. An additional 14 forms were added to the
Hemovigilance Component to streamline data collection/entry for adverse
reaction events.
Additionally, minor revisions have been made to 22 forms within the
package to clarify and/or update surveillance definitions. The
previously approved NHSN package included 52 individual collection
forms; the current revision request adds nineteen forms and removes one
form for a total of 70 forms. The reporting burden will increase by
489,174 hours, for a total of 5,110,716 hours.
