Proposed Project
Well-Integrated Screening and
Evaluation for Women Across the
Nation (WISEWOMAN) Reporting
System—EXTENSION—National Center
for Chronic Disease Prevention and
Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The WISEWOMEN program, which
focuses on reducing cardiovascular
disease risk factors among at-risk
women, was in response to the
Secretary of Health and Human
Services’ Continuous Improvement
Initiative, asking for the development of
programs that examine ways in which
service delivery can be improved for
select populations. Title XV of the
Public Health Service Act, Section 1509
originally authorized the secretary of the
Department of Health and Human
Services to establish up to three
demonstration projects. Through
appropriations language, the CDC
WISEWOMAN program is now allowed
to fund up to 15 projects. Currently,
WISEWOMAN funds 12 demonstration
projects, which at full implementation
are expected to screen approximately
30,000 women annually for
cardiovascular disease risk factors. The
program targets women already
participating in the National Breast and
PO 00000
Frm 00042
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
Cervical Cancer Early Detection Program
(NBCCEDP) and provides screening for
select cardiovascular disease risk factors
(including elevated cholesterol,
hypertension and abnormal blood
glucose levels), lifestyle interventions,
and medical referrals as required in an
effort to improve cardiovascular health
among participants.
The CDC proposes to collect and
analyze baseline and follow-up date (12
months post enrollment) for all
participants. These data called the
minimum data elements (MDE’s),
includes demographic and risk factor
information about women served in
each program and information
concerning the number and type of
intervention sessions attended. The
MDE’s will be reported to CDC in April
and October each year. The MDE allows
or an assessment of how effective
WISEWOMAN is at reducing the burden
of cardiovascular disease risk factors
among participants. The CDC also
proposes to collect programmatic data
for all WISEWOMAN programs.
Programmatic data includes information
related to grantee management, public
education and outreach professional
education service delivery, cost, and an
assessment of how well each program is
meeting their stated objectives.
All required data will be submitted
electronically to the contractor hired by
CDC to conduct the WISEWOMAN
evaluation. MDE and cost data will be
submitted to RTI twice a year. All
information collected as part of the
WISEWOMAN evaluation will be used
to assess the costs, effectiveness and
cost-effectiveness of WISEWOMAN in
reducing cardiovascular disease risk
factors, for obtaining more complete
health data among vulnerable
populations, promoting public
education of disease incidence and riskfactors, improving the availability of
screening and diagnostic services for
under-served women, ensuring the
quality of services provided to women
and developing strategies for improved
interventions. Because certain
demographic data are already collected
as part of NBCCEDP, the additional
burden on grantees will be modest.
There are no costs to the respondents
other than their time. The total
estimated annualized burden hours are
2,160.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
This guidance provides
recommendations to sponsors and
CDRH staff on expectations concerning
format, content, and review of reports
related to post-approval studies
imposed by premarket approval
application order to help ensure that the
studies are conducted effectively and
efficiently, and in a least burdensome
manner. The guidance has been drafted
in response to concerns by Congress, the
Institute of Medicine, and FDA about
the agency’s ability to monitor and track
these studies and industry’s requests for
more clarity about the agency’s
expectations. FDA received a few
comments on the draft document
(announced at 70 FR 54561, September
15, 2005) and has made minor changes
to the guidance.
II. Significance of Guidance
This guidance is being issued
consistent with FDA’s good guidance
practices regulation (21 CFR 10.115).
The guidance represents the agency’s
current thinking on post-approval
studies. It does not create or confer any
rights for or on any person and does not
operate to bind FDA or the public. An
alternative approach may be used if
such approach satisfies the
requirements of the applicable statute
and regulations.
