The Division of Blood Disorders submitted questions to the 2007 HealthStyles survey to determine the public’s knowledge of DVT, its common symptoms, and risk factors. Although over 60% of respondents identified pain and swelling as symptoms, 60% did not identify tenderness (often the first sign of DVT) as a symptom. Only 38% of respondents knew that a DVT was a blood clot in a vein, and most could not identify common risk factors for DVT such as sitting for a long period of time (e.g., during air travel); having a leg or foot injury; having a family member who has had a DVT; taking birth control pills; or getting older; and certain groups could not identify risk factors that specifically applied to their risk. The results of this survey demonstrates the need for greater awareness of DVT, and its risk factors and the data show that there are many opportunities to develop audience specific messages that are age specific and culturally appropriate. Much of the morbidity and mortality associated with DVT/PE could be prevented with early and accurate diagnosis and management. DVT/PE is preventable. It is important for people to developed from insights emerging from this exploratory research phase. The Contractor will conduct eight (8) focus groups with nine (9) participants in each focus group during the second stage to test the message concepts and identify possible ways to present the messages. It is estimated that 144 respondents will have to be screened in order to recruit 72 focus group participants. The informed consent will take approximately 6 minutes to complete, for a total burden of 7 hours. The Contractor selected will work with CDC to identify and recruit focus group participants. Formative research participants will include adults (aged 25–64) who have been hospitalized in the last year and seniors (aged 65–80). Message testing participants will include adults (aged 25–64) who have been hospitalized in the last year and seniors (aged 65–80). Participants will be recruited to participate in one of sixteen in-person focus groups that will be conducted in the following cities: • Atlanta, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and Tampa (formative research task), and • Atlanta, Baltimore, Pittsburgh, and Tampa (message testing task) There are no costs to the respondents other than their time. be able to recognize the signs and symptoms and know when to seek care and available treatment. Individuals, families, and their support communities can reduce their risk by understanding DVT/PE and its risk factors. DVT/PE affects people of all races and ages. Many of the acquired risks such as obesity, advanced age, air travel, chronic diseases, cancer, and hospitalization are increasing in the United States, and we can expect to see increasing numbers of people affected by DVT/PE. The CDC’s Division of Blood Disorders will conduct focus groups to develop messaging concepts that will be used in a public awareness campaign to build knowledge and awareness of DVT/ PE, increase recognition of the symptoms and risk factors for DVT/PE, and empower people to take action. The project will address these objectives in two stages: In the first stage the Contractor selected will conduct eight (8) formative focus groups with nine (9) participants in each focus group to explore consumer knowledge, attitudes, and beliefs (KABs) toward DVT. It is estimated that 144 respondents will have to be screened in order to recruit 72 focus group participants.

Ingredient reports for new products are due at the time of first importation. Thereafter, ingredient reports are due annually on March 31. Information is submitted to OSH by mailing a written report on the respondent’s letterhead, by CD, three-inch floppy disk, or thumb drive. Electronic mail submissions are not accepted. Upon receipt and verification of the annual ingredient and nicotine data reports, OSH issues a Certificate of Compliance to the respondent.
