AGENCY HOLDING THE MEETING:
Proposed Project
The Gonococcal Isolate Surveillance
Project (GISP) (OMB No. 0920–0307
exp. 3/31/2011)—Extension—National
Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis,
STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Dated: August 16, 2010.
Robert deV. Frierson,
Deputy Secretary of the Board.
Background and Brief Description
The objectives of GISP are: (1) To
monitor trends in antimicrobial
susceptibility of strains of Neisseria
gonorrhoeae in the United States and (2)
to characterize resistant isolates. GISP
provides critical surveillance for
antimicrobial resistance, allowing for
informed treatment recommendations.
Monitoring antibiotic susceptibility is
critical since Neisseria gonorrhoeae has
demonstrated the consistent ability to
gain antibiotic resistance. GISP was
established in 1986 as a voluntary
surveillance project and now involves 5
regional laboratories and 30 publicly
funded sexually transmitted disease
(STD) clinics around the country. The
STD clinics submit up to 25 gonococcal

Proposed Data Collections Submitted
for Public Comment and
Recommendations
emcdonald on DSK2BSOYB1PROD with NOTICES
In compliance with the requirement
of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 for
isolates per month to the regional
laboratories, which measure
susceptibility to a panel of antibiotics.
Limited demographic and clinical
information corresponding to the
isolates are submitted directly by the
clinics to CDC.
During 1986–2009, GISP has
demonstrated the ability to effectively
achieve its objectives. The emergence of
resistance in the United States to
penicillin, tetracyclines, and
fluoroquinolones among Neisseria
gonorrhoeae isolates was identified
through GISP. Increased prevalence of
fluoroquinolone-resistant N.
gonorrhoeae (QRNG), as documented by
GISP data, prompted CDC to update
treatment recommendations for
gonorrhea in CDC’s Sexually
Transmitted Diseases Treatment
Guidelines, 2006 and to release an
MMWR article stating that CDC no
longer recommended fluoroquinolones
for treatment of gonococcal infections.
Under the GISP protocol, each of the
30 clinics submit an average of 20
isolates per clinic per month (i.e., 240
times per year) recorded on Form 1. The
estimated time for clinical personnel to
abstract data for Form 1 is 11 minutes
per response.
Each of the 5 Regional laboratories
receives and processes an average of 20
isolates from 6 different clinics per
month (i.e., 120 isolates per regional
laboratory per month) using Form 2. For
Form 2, the annual frequency of
responses per respondent is 1,440 (120
isolates × 12 months). Based on
previous laboratory experience, the
estimated burden for each participating
laboratory for Form 2 is 1 hour per
response, which includes the time
required for laboratory processing of the
patient’s isolate, gathering and
maintaining the data needed, and
completing and reviewing the collection
of information. For Form 3, a ‘‘response’’
is defined as the processing and
recording of Regional laboratory data for
a set of 7 control strains. It takes
approximately 12 minutes to process
and record the Regional laboratory data
on Form 3 for one set of 7 control
strains, of which there are 4 sets. The
number of responses per respondent is
48 (4 sets × 12 months). There is no cost
to the respondents other than their time.
