Proposed Project
Targeted Surveillance and Biometric
Studies for Enhanced Evaluation of
Community Transformation Grants—
New—National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Prevention and Public Health
Fund (PPHF) of the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act of 2010 (ACA)
provides an important opportunity for
states, counties, territories and tribes to
advance public health across the
lifespan and to reduce health
disparities. The PPHF authorizes
Community Transformation Grants
(CTG) for the implementation,

evaluation, and dissemination of
evidence-based community preventive
health activities. The CTG Program
emphasizes five strategic directions: (1)
Tobacco-free living, (2) active lifestyles
and healthy eating, (3) high impact,
evidence-based clinical and other
preventive services, (4) social and
emotional well-being, and (5) healthy
and safe physical environments.
The CTG Program is administered by
the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), National Center for
Chronic Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP). As required by
Section 4201 of the ACA, CDC is
responsible for conducting a
comprehensive evaluation of the CTG
Program which includes assessment
over time of measures relating to each
of the five strategic directions.
CDC is requesting OMB approval to
collect information through two studies
needed for these assessments. One study
is a telephone and mailed survey (Adult
Targeted Surveillance Survey) of a
random sample of adults in 20 CTG
communities (1000 individuals per
community). Respondents will be asked
to provide information about household
practices and their personal behaviors
specific to the five strategic directions
(e.g., nutrition). Information from the
targeted surveillance surveys will be
compared with data from other local,
state or national surveillance systems to
monitor changes in relevant attitudes,
risk behaviors, and other behavioral
factors.
The second study for which OMB
approval is requested to conduct the
Youth and Adult Biometric Study
(YABS), in up to 8 CTG areas that are
implementing evidence-based strategies
to prevent exposure to secondhand
smoke and to improve nutrition and
physical activity among children and
adults (and are part of the targeted
surveillance study described above).
The YABS will examine the impact of
CTG strategies on biometric markers of
health status including weight, height
(i.e., body mass index or BMI), waist

Frm 00046

circumference, secondhand smoke
exposure, and blood pressure. Each
adult respondent in the YABS will be
asked to participate in an in-home visit
with a trained interviewer, who will
collect biometric data about the
respondent such as height, weight,
saliva, blood pressure, etc. The adult
respondent will also be asked to provide
information about his or her activity
level over a one-week period. Objective
measures of activity will be collected
through use of an accelerometer, i.e., an
electronic meter worn next to the body.
In addition, the respondent will
maintain a hardcopy activity diary to
assist in interpreting the accelerometry
data. An adult YABS respondent who is
the parent or guardian of a child in the
household will be asked to allow one
child (age 3–17 years) to participate in
the youth component of the YABS. With
the child’s assent, similar biometric and
activity measures will be collected from
the child. If the child is between 3 and
11 years of age, the parent or guardian
will be asked to complete a Caregiver
Survey about the child’s behaviors. If
the child is between 12 and 17 years of
age, he or she will be asked to complete
a Youth Survey.
The estimated burden per response is
30 minutes for adults participating in
the first study, and up to an additional
60 minutes if the same adult agrees to
participate in the YABS study. The
estimated burden for youth between 12
and 17 years of age is 50 minutes, and
20 minutes for children aged 3 to 11
years. Caregivers for the younger
children will have an estimated burden
per response of 20 minutes to complete
the Caregiver Survey. The information
to be collected will allow CDC to
estimate the effect of all CTG
interventions on health behaviors and
health outcomes in adults and children
ages 3–17 years, and to estimate the
independent effect of school-based
interventions in youth. OMB approval is
requested for the first three years of the
five-year CTG project period.
Participation is voluntary and there are

Studies have reported that EMS
workers have higher rates of non-fatal
injuries and illnesses as compared to the
general worker population. As EMS
professionals are tasked with protecting
the health of the public and treating
urgent medical needs, it follows that
understanding and preventing injuries
and illnesses among EMS workers will
have a benefit reaching beyond the
workers to the general public.
As mandated in the Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970 (Pub. L.
91–596), the mission of NIOSH is to
conduct research and investigations on
occupational safety and health. Related
to this mission, the purpose of this
project is to conduct research that will
provide a detailed description of nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses
incurred by EMS workers. The project
will use two related data sources. The
first source is data abstracted from
medical records of EMS workers treated
in a nationally stratified sample of

emergency departments. These data are
routinely collected by the occupational
supplement to the National Electronic
Injury Surveillance System (NEISS–
Work). The second data source, for
which NIOSH is seeking OMB approval
for a two year extension, is responses to
telephone interview surveys of the
injured and ill EMS workers identified
within NEISS–Work. Collection of
telephone interview data began in July
2010.
Data collected under the original
OMB approval for this project indicate
that EMS workers are willing to respond
to detailed questions about their
occupational injury and related
circumstances. However, in order to
obtain enough data to produce stable,
detailed national estimates, data
collection should continue until July 1,
2014. This will provide a total of four
years of data for analysis. The only
revisions to this project are related to a
reduced annual sample, based on the
annual number of interviews collected
to-date, and a reduced cost burden due
to a decrease in estimated respondent
costs due to a decrease in the average
hourly wage of EMS workers.
The ongoing telephone interview
surveys will supplement NEISS–Work
data with an extensive description of
EMS worker injuries and illnesses,
including worker characteristics, injury
types, injury circumstances, injury
