implementation of best practices for
emergency treatment of heart disease
and stroke.
The objectives of the data collection
are to prepare a comprehensive
description of the ‘‘state of the practice’’
of pre-hospital emergency medical
services related to cardiac and stroke
care. This will include organizational
and administrative aspects of EMS at
state, sub-state district, and local levels,
major public and private stakeholders in
the conduct of EMS, technical support
issues, and practices related to positive
outcomes in pre-hospital cardiac and
stroke emergency care. Data analysis
will include a compilation of the
practices in use and comparison of
organizational and administrative
configurations.
Data collection includes: (1) A
telephone survey with a random sample
of 250 local EMS agency supervisors
(total N=2,250) in each of 9 States on the
status of capabilities represented and
treatment protocols used in EMS
organizations related to cardiac and
stroke care; (2) in-person interviews
with state level EMS officials (e.g., State
EMS Director, State EMS Medical
Director, or public health agency
representative) (N=18) who are involved
in policy and practice of the EMS
system in the state and, (3) telephone
interviews with a purposive sample five
sub-state level EMS officials (e.g.,
county or district directors) (N=45) in
each of the 9 states to examine
responsibilities and objectives at a substate level for the state’s EMS system.
There are no costs to the respondents
other than their time.

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information

Background and Brief Description
The purpose of this project is to
enhance CDC’s understanding of
emergency medical services (EMS)
administration and oversight, identify
important stakeholders for partnering
and cooperation, and gather data on
heart disease and stroke emergency
treatment protocols in use. This project
will fill an important gap in CDC’s
understanding of heart disease and
stroke emergency medical care by
providing detailed information from a
sample of EMS organizations on
operational resources, configurations of
certification levels, treatment protocols
and performance measures, and other
significant issues at a local and state
level in 9 states (FL, MA, KS, MT, NM,
PA, OR, SC, AR), in order to ultimately
contribute to the development and

Proposed Project
Integrating HIV and Other Prevention
Services into Reproductive Health and
Other Community Settings On-Line
Performance Reporting System—New—
National Center for Chronic Disease
Prevention and Health Promotion
(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Integrating HIV and Other Prevention
Services into Reproductive Health and
Other Community Settings is a training
project of the CDC, National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion, and its grantees, their ten
family planning regional training
centers. The project requires twice
yearly reports from its grantees (each of
whom corresponds to one of the ten
federal public health regions), on their
training-centered intervention activities.
CDC guidelines also obligate grantees,
under cooperative agreements to
provide such performance reporting. To
facilitate grantees’ compliance with
performance reporting requirements, a
secure online performance reporting
system has been designed to capture
training activity information, an
indicator of consistent and measurable
project progress. Each grantee enters
and edits their own training activity

data and generates project evaluation
documents and semi-annual reports on
the Internet. CDC will use the reported
data to assess project progress towards
achieving its objectives:
1. Measurable information about
grantees’ prevention training activities.
2. Evaluate prevention training needs,
complexity, diversity, and availability.
3. Comparisons between the trained
population and the general population
of the local area.
4. Evaluate special cultural and
regional needs.
5. Describe the complexity of the
trained workforce.
6. Grant grantees access to on-line
data reports.
Grantees’ semi-annual performance
reports are due April 30 and October 30
during each year of the 5-year
cooperative agreement. Using the online system, grantees enter data during
each reporting period, then, generate a
copy of their training report. Next, by
the specified dates, grantees deliver this
performance report and their nonstructured narrative report, which
explains additions, deletions, changes,
and redirections of training objectives or
activities, to CDC’s Procurement and
Grants Office.
Grantees’ on-line performance reports

A. Log-in information.

• Fiscal year.
B. Information describing grantees
and their partners.
