Based on the recommendations of an expert panel convened, CDC is proposing to conduct a randomized controlled trial to provide this evidence. The trial will recruit 2675 women in a network of women’s health clinics. Women attending these clinics tend to be African American and of lower socioeconomic status. For this study, women will be randomly allocated to one of three arms: (1) Screened for IPV, and if disclosing IPV, provided information on available IPV services; (2) not screened and all receiving information on available IPV services; or (3) a control group that will not be screened nor receive information on available IPV services. All three arms will be assessed with a self-report measure for disability, quality of life, and utilization of health services at baseline utilizing an audio-computerassisted structured interview (A–CASI) and at a 12-month follow-up utilizing a computerized-assisted telephone interview (CATI). The results from this Randomized Controlled Trial, will guide CDC as well as other governmental agencies, professional and health care organizations, and women’s advocate groups in formulating its recommendations and policies regarding routine screening. A pretest with 196 women in a women’s health clinic was conducted to test the enrollment, randomization, interview, and follow-up procedures; and provide estimates for outcome measures. Based on the results of the pretest, CDC has revised the measures, procedures, and sample size requirements for the Randomized Controlled Trial. There are no costs to respondents other than their time to participate in the survey. Randomized Controlled Trial of Routine Screening for Intimate Partner Violence (OMB No. 0920–0761 Exp. 1/ 31/2011)—Revision—National Center for Injury Prevention and Control (NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Total burden hours Background and Brief Description Intimate partner violence (IPV) is a prevalent problem with serious health consequences that include death, physical injury, increased rates of physical illness, posttraumatic stress, increased psychological distress, depression, substance abuse, and suicide. Some studies suggest that abuse perpetrated by intimate partners tends to be repetitive and escalates in severity over time. This research has been the basis for promoting early diagnosis and intervention. Health care providers appear to be well situated to identify IPV. Women come into contact with health care services routinely for a number of reasons such as prenatal care, family planning, cancer screening, and well baby care. Women experiencing IPV make more visits to emergency departments, primary care facilities, and mental health agencies than non-abused women. Considering the magnitude and severity of IPV, and the potential role health care providers could play in reducing its serious consequences, numerous professional and health care organizations have recommended routine screening of women for IPV in primary care settings.

Proposed Project

National Disease Surveillance Program (OMB No. 0920-0009 Exp. 3/31/
2010)--Revision--National Center for Zoonotic, Vector-borne, and
Enteric Diseases (NCZVED), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

Formal surveillance of 17 separate reportable diseases has been
ongoing to meet the public demand and scientific interest in accurate,
consistent, epidemiologic data. These ongoing disease reports include:
Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD), Cyclospora, Dengue, Hantavirus,
Kawasaki Syndrome, Legionellosis, Lyme disease, Malaria, Plague, Q
Fever, Reye Syndrome, Tickborne Rickettsial Disease, Trichinosis,
Tularemia, Typhoid Fever, and Viral Hepatitis. This revision entails
the discontinuation of the two Active Bacterial Surveillance (ABCs)
forms which now collect data under a separate OMB control number, 0920-
0802. Case report forms from state and territorial health departments
enable CDC to collect demographic, clinical, and laboratory
characteristics of cases of these diseases.
The purpose of the proposed study is to direct epidemiologic
investigations, identify and monitor trends in reemerging infectious
diseases or emerging modes of transmission, to search for possible
causes or sources of the diseases, and develop guidelines for
prevention and treatment. The data collected will also be used to
recommend target areas most in need of vaccinations for selected
diseases and to determine development of drug resistance. Because of
the distinct nature of each of the diseases, the number of cases
reported annually is different for each. There is no cost to
respondents other than their time.
