Proposed Project Assessment and Monitoring of Breastfeeding-Related Maternity Care Practices in Intra-partum Care Facilities in the United States and Territories PO 00000 Frm 00026 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 (OMB Control No. 0920–0743, Exp. 7/ 31/2009)—Revision—National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Substantial evidence demonstrates the health benefits of breastfeeding. Breastfeeding mothers have lower risks of breast and ovarian cancers and type 2 diabetes, and breastfeeding better protects infants against infections, chronic diseases like diabetes and obesity, and even childhood leukemia and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). However, the groups that are at higher risk for diabetes, obesity, and poor health overall persistently have the lowest breastfeeding rates. Health professionals recommend at least 12 months of breastfeeding, and Healthy People 2010 establishes specific national breastfeeding goals. In addition to increasing overall rates, a significant public health priority in the U.S. is to reduce variation in breastfeeding rates across population subgroups. For example, in 2005, nearly three-quarters of white mothers started breastfeeding, but only about half of black mothers did so. The health care system is one of the most important and effective settings to improve breastfeeding. In 2007, CDC conducted the first national survey of Maternity Practices in Infant Nutrition and Care (known as the mPINC Survey) in health care facilities (hospitals and free-standing childbirth centers). This survey was designed to provide baseline information and to be repeated again in 2009. It inquired about patient education and support for breastfeeding throughout the maternity stay as well as staff training and maternity care policies. Prior to the fielding of the 2009 iteration, CDC has been requested to provide a report to OMB on the results of the 2007 collection. In this report, CDC will provide these results by geographic and demographic characteristics and a summary of activities that resulted from the survey. Because the 2009 mPINC survey repeats the prior iteration, the methodology, content, and administration of it will match those used before. The census design does not employ sampling methods. Facilities are identified by using the American Association of Birth Centers (AABC) and the American Hospital Association (AHA) Annual Survey of Hospitals. In addition to all facilities that participated in 2007, the 2009 survey will include those that were invited but did not E:\FR\FM\03FEN1.SGM 03FEN1 5937 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 21 / Tuesday, February 3, 2009 / Notices participate in 2007 and any that are new since then.

(NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Substantial evidence demonstrates the health benefits of 
breastfeeding. Breastfeeding mothers have lower risks of breast and 
ovarian cancers and type 2 diabetes, and breastfeeding better protects 
infants against infections, chronic diseases like diabetes and obesity, 
and even childhood leukemia and sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). 
However, the groups that are at higher risk for diabetes, obesity, and 
poor health overall persistently have the lowest breastfeeding rates.
    Health professionals recommend at least 12 months of breastfeeding, 
and Healthy People 2010 establishes specific national breastfeeding 
goals. In addition to increasing overall rates, a significant public 
health priority in the U.S. is to reduce variation in breastfeeding 
rates across population subgroups. For example, in 2005, nearly three-
quarters of white mothers started breastfeeding, but only about half of 
black mothers did so.
    The health care system is one of the most important and effective 
settings to improve breastfeeding. In 2007, CDC conducted the first 
national survey of Maternity Practices in Infant Nutrition and Care 
(known as the mPINC Survey) in health care facilities (hospitals and 
free-standing childbirth centers). This survey was designed to provide 
baseline information and to be repeated again in 2009. It inquired 
about patient education and support for breastfeeding throughout the
