(60 minutes) 4 hours. Total Burden .............................................................................................. ........................ ........................ ........................... 589.5 hours. *Each direct caregiver staff person will be interviewed about multiple residents (approximately 9 each). These interviews will occur three times—at baseline, at 6 months and at 12 months for a total of 27 interviews. Direct caregiver staff and other facility staff we interview will be similar to certified nurse assistants. We do not include professional level staff in this category. Estimated Annual Costs to the Federal Government The total estimated one-time cost of this intervention implementation and related data collection to the federal government is $199,600. This funding will be used to support the cost of implementing the intervention, salary and fringe benefits for the research team to conduct the survey interview and indepth interview, costs for members of the research team to travel to each site, and the incentives paid to facilities for participation in the intervention. The project proposes to work with assisted living facilities with which the research team already has established relationships and familiarity and will attempt to minimize burden to the assisted living facility staff by being flexible to schedules and requirements of care practices within the facilities. Request for Comments In accordance with the above-cited Paperwork Reduction Act legislation, comments on AHRQ’s information collection are requested with regard to any of the following: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of AHRQ health care research and health care information dissemination functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of AHRQ’s estimate of burden (including hours and costs) of the proposed collection(s) of information; (c) 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 upon the respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms for information technology.

Proposed Project Assessment of Occupational Exposure Management—New—Division of Healthcare Quality Promotion (DHQP), Background and Brief Description The purpose of this project is to assess how healthcare facilities manage occupational blood exposures as part of a larger plan to prevent the transmission of blood borne pathogens. While the United States Public Health Service protocols on management of occupational exposure are widely distributed, the awareness and implementation of these protocols by providers of health services are unknown. In this project, CDC will randomly survey four types of healthcare facilities, acute care facilities, ambulatory surgery centers, long-term care facilities, and dialysis centers. The facility will be asked to complete the survey which asks questions about facility awareness and preparation; general occupational exposure management practices; occupational exposures to hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus (HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV); post-exposure prophylaxis; and exposure prevention measures. Facilities may complete the survey by paper and pencil or on the web. The results of the survey will be used to provide healthcare facilities with up-todate information on infection control. There are no costs to the respondents other than their time to complete the survey. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 1,773.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background FDA is announcing the availability of summaries of medical and clinical pharmacology reviews of pediatric studies conducted for CELEBREX (celecoxib), COLAZAL (balsalazide), ELOXATIN (oxaliplatin), EMTRIVA (emtricitabine), SUPRANE (desflurane), and TOPROL–XL (metoprolol). The summaries are being made available consistent with section 9 of the BPCA (Public Law 107–109). Enacted on January 4, 2002, the BPCA reauthorizes, with certain important changes, the pediatric exclusivity program described in section 505A of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (the act) (21 U.S.C. 355a). Section 505A of the act permits certain applications to obtain 6 months of marketing exclusivity if, in accordance with the requirements of the statute, the sponsor submits requested information relating to the use of the drug in the pediatric population. One of the provisions the BPCA added to the pediatric exclusivity program pertains to the dissemination of pediatric information. Specifically, for all pediatric supplements submitted under the BPCA, the BPCA requires FDA to make available to the public a summary of the medical and clinical pharmacology reviews of pediatric studies conducted for the supplement (21 U.S.C. 355a(m)(1)). The summaries are to be made available not later than 180 days after the report on the pediatric study is submitted to FDA (21 U.S.C. 355a(m)(1)). Consistent with this provision of the BPCA, FDA has posted on the Internet summaries of medical and clinical pharmacology reviews of pediatric studies submitted in supplements for CELEBREX (celecoxib), COLAZAL (balsalazide), ELOXATIN (oxaliplatin), EMTRIVA (emtricitabine), SUPRANE (desflurane), and TOPROL– XL (metoprolol).

Healthcare Quality Promotion (DHQP), National Center for Preparedness, 
Detection, and Control of Infectious Diseases (NCPDCID), Centers for 
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    The purpose of this project is to assess how healthcare facilities 
manage occupational blood exposures as part of a larger plan to prevent 
the transmission of blood borne pathogens. While the United States 
Public Health Service protocols on management of occupational exposure 
are widely distributed, the awareness and implementation of these 
protocols by providers of health services are unknown.
    In this project, CDC will randomly survey four types of healthcare 
facilities, acute care facilities, ambulatory surgery centers, long-
term care facilities, and dialysis centers. The facility will be asked 
to complete the survey which asks questions about facility awareness 
and preparation; general occupational exposure management practices; 
occupational exposures to hepatitis B virus (HBV), hepatitis C virus 
(HCV), and human immunodeficiency virus (HIV); post-exposure 
prophylaxis; and exposure prevention measures. Facilities may complete 
the survey by paper and pencil or on the web. The results of the survey 
will be used to provide healthcare facilities with up-to-date 
information on infection control.
    There are no costs to the respondents other than their time to 
complete the survey. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 
1,773.
