Proposed Project Early Hearing Detection and Intervention Hearing Screening and Follow-up Survey -New- National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities (NCBDDD), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description The National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities (NCBDDD) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention promotes the health of babies, children, and adults with disabilities. Activities related to addressing hearing loss (HL) among newborns and infants are part of NCBDDD’s mission. HL is a common birth defect that affects approximately 12,000 infants across the United States each year, and can result in developmental delays when left undetected. As awareness about infant HL increases, so does the demand for accurate information about incidence, rate of screening, referral to care, and loss to follow-up. Given the lack of a standardized and readily accessible source of data, CDC’s Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) program has developed a survey to be used annually for State and Territory EHDI Program Coordinators that utilizes uniform definitions to collect aggregate, standardized EHDI data from states and territories. This information is important for helping to ensure infants and children are receiving recommended screening and follow-up services, documenting the occurrence and etiology of differing degrees of HL among infants, and determining the overall impact of infant HL on future outcomes, such as cognitive development and family dynamics. These data will also assist state EHDI programs with quality improvement activities and provide information that will be helpful in assessing the impact of Federal initiatives. The public will be able to access this information via CDC’s EHDI Web site (https://www.cdc.gov/ ncbddd/ehdi/). There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden is 209 hours.

Follow-up Survey -New- National Center on Birth Defects and

Background and Brief Description

    The National Center on Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities 
(NCBDDD) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention promotes the 
health of babies, children, and adults with disabilities. Activities 
related to addressing hearing loss (HL) among newborns and infants are 
part of NCBDDD's mission. HL is a common birth defect that affects 
approximately 12,000 infants across the United States each year, and 
can result in developmental delays when left undetected. As awareness 
about infant HL increases, so does the demand for accurate information 
about incidence, rate of screening, referral to care, and loss to 
follow-up.
    Given the lack of a standardized and readily accessible source of 
data, CDC's Early Hearing Detection and Intervention (EHDI) program has 
developed a survey to be used annually for State and Territory EHDI 
Program Coordinators that utilizes uniform definitions to collect 
aggregate, standardized EHDI data from states and territories. This

receiving recommended screening and follow-up services, documenting the

determining the overall impact of infant HL on future outcomes, such as 
cognitive development and family dynamics. These data will also assist 
state EHDI programs with quality improvement activities and provide 
information that will be helpful in assessing the impact of Federal 
initiatives. The public will be able to access this information via

costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated 
annualized burden is 209 hours.
