Proposed Project

    Survey of 911 Emergency Treatment for Heart Disease and Stroke--
New--National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health 
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    CDC has a responsibility to monitor and reduce death and disability 
due to heart disease and stroke and needs information concerning 
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) practices to effectively coordinate 
national public health interventions. The proposed project will enhance 
CDC's understanding of the field practices of local emergency medical 
services (EMS) provider organizations and state level administration 
and oversight, and provide interaction with important stakeholders for 
partnering and cooperation. A survey will be conducted with 
approximately 2,250 local EMS departments focusing on standards of 
emergency care, treatment protocols, administrative oversight, 
training, certification, and service area characteristics. The survey 
sample includes all local EMS provider organizations in nine states 
(FL, MA, KS, MT, NM, PA, OR, SC, AR). The data collected will provide 
important insights into the ``state of the practice'' of pre-hospital 
emergency medical services related to cardiac and stroke care 
specifically. The study also will cover organizational and 
administrative aspects of EMS at the state and sub-state district level 
in the same nine states, 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.
    There are no costs to respondents except their time to participate 
in the survey. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 563.
