Contact Person: Sara J. Anderson, Center for Devices and Radiological Health, Food and Drug Administration, 10903 New Hampshire Ave., Bldg 66, Rm. 1611, Silver Spring, MD, Sara.Anderson@fda.hhs.gov, 301–796– 7047, or FDA Advisory Committee Information Line, 1–800–741–8138 (301–443–0572 in the Washington, DC area). A notice in the Federal Register about last minute modifications that impact a previously announced advisory committee meeting cannot always be published quickly enough to provide timely notice. Therefore, you should always check the Agency’s Web site at https://www.fda.gov/ AdvisoryCommittees/default.htm and scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting link, or call the advisory committee information line to learn about possible modifications before coming to the meeting. Agenda: On July 18, 2013, the committee will discuss and make recommendations on the proposed regulatory classification for dental devices known as Endosseous Dental Implants (Blade-form), one of the remaining preamendments Class III devices. The Class III blade-form endosseous dental implant is a device placed into the maxilla or mandible and composed of biocompatible material, such as commercially pure titanium, with sufficient strength to support a dental restoration, such as a crown, bridge, or denture, intended for the purpose of replacing tooth (or teeth) roots and extending a support post through the gingival tissue into the oral cavity to restore chewing function. The blade-form implant is generally a rectangular shape or rounded corner rectangle shape (in the mesio-distal plane) with a narrow tapered (narrow at the apical edge) edge (in the buccolingual plane) similar in shape to a razor blade. Other blade designs, such as square, V-shaped, and triangles have also been used. The blade-form implants are either one-piece or two-piece implants designed with one to three cylindrical abutment posts extending from the coronal aspect of the blade through the soft tissue and into the oral cavity. On January 4, 2013 (FDA–2012–N– 0677), FDA issued a proposed order which, if made final, would reclassify the blade-form endosseous dental implant into class II (special controls). The committee’s discussion will involve making recommendations regarding regulatory classification to either reaffirm Class III or reclassify these devices into Class II and comment on VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:13 May 10, 2013 Jkt 229001 whether the proposed Special Controls are adequate to reasonably ensure the safety and effectiveness of blade-form endosseous dental implants. The regulatory history of blade-form endosseous dental implant has been discussed as part of the proposed order (FDA–2012–N–0677). FDA intends to make background material available to the public no later than 2 business days before the meeting. If FDA is unable to post the background material on its Web site prior to the meeting, the background material will be made publicly available at the location of the advisory committee meeting, and the background material will be posted on FDA’s Web site after the meeting. Background material is available at https://www.fda.gov/ AdvisoryCommittees/Calendar/ default.htm. Scroll down to the appropriate advisory committee meeting link. Procedure: Interested persons may present data, information, or views, orally or in writing, on issues pending before the committee.

The authority for this program is the Public Health Service Act, Title XII, Section 1252 (42 U.S.C. 300d–52) as amended by the Children’s Health Act of 2000, sec. 1304, Public Law 106–310, as further amended by the Traumatic Brain Injury Act of 2008, sec. 6, Public Law 110–206. Individuals with TBI present with a host of different symptoms, which exist with varying levels of severity. Comprehensive appropriate care often requires a variety of services such as physical rehabilitation, speech rehabilitation, cognitive rehabilitation, special education accommodations, vocational skills coaching, and independent living skills training, which are located across many state and local agencies. For this reason, individuals with TBI and their family members often have difficulty identifying local providers with the skills and expertise to deliver services that will promote recovery and maximize independence. Per the authorizing legislation, the intent of these programs is to improve access to rehabilitation and other services regarding traumatic brain injury. The HRSA State Implementation Partnership Grants and State Protection and Advocacy Grants support this charge by providing information to individuals with TBI and their families about TBI and making referrals to local providers equipped to meet the unique needs of each survivor. Additionally, these grant programs train providers in various settings to identify and effectively serve individuals with TBI and their families. To date, a number of grantees have collected data independently to determine the impact of their work on individuals with TBI and their families. HRSA proposes uniform data collection surveys for these two categories of activities—information and referral Number of respondents Form name Number of responses per respondent services, and professional training—to assess the extent to which these activities are increasing access to rehabilitation and other services. In addition to providing uniform data across these grant programs, the data will help determine what efforts might improve outreach and provision of services for future projects. Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the information requested. This includes the time needed to review instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise disclose the information.

Information Collection Request Title: Information and Referral and 
Professional Training Impact Surveys in Health Resources and Services 
Administration (HRSA)--Funded Traumatic Brain Injury Grants (OMB No. 
0915-xxxx)--New

    Abstract: This survey is designed to collect information from HRSA-
funded Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) State Implementation Partnership 
Grants and Protection and Advocacy for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) 
Grants regarding the impact of grant activities on individuals with 
traumatic brain injury and their family members. The authority for this 
program is the Public Health Service Act, Title XII, Section 1252 (42 
U.S.C. 300d-52) as amended by the Children's Health Act of 2000, sec. 
1304, Public Law 106-310, as further amended by the Traumatic Brain 
Injury Act of 2008, sec. 6, Public Law 110-206.
    Individuals with TBI present with a host of different symptoms, 
which exist with varying levels of severity. Comprehensive appropriate 
care often requires a variety of services such as physical 
rehabilitation, speech rehabilitation, cognitive rehabilitation, 
special education accommodations, vocational skills coaching, and 
independent living skills training, which are located across many state 
and local agencies. For this reason, individuals with TBI and their 
family members often have difficulty identifying local providers with 
the skills and expertise to deliver services that will promote recovery 
and maximize independence.
    Per the authorizing legislation, the intent of these programs is to 
improve access to rehabilitation and other services regarding traumatic 
brain injury. The HRSA State Implementation Partnership Grants and 
State Protection and Advocacy Grants support this charge by providing 
information to individuals with TBI and their families about TBI and 
making referrals to local providers equipped to meet the unique needs 
of each survivor. Additionally, these grant programs train providers in 
various settings to identify and effectively serve individuals with TBI 
and their families.
    To date, a number of grantees have collected data independently to 
determine the impact of their work on individuals with TBI and their 
families. HRSA proposes uniform data collection surveys for these two 
categories of activities--information and referral services, and 
professional training--to assess the extent to which these activities 
are increasing access to rehabilitation and other services. In addition 
to providing uniform data across these grant programs, the data will 
help determine what efforts might improve outreach and provision of 
services for future projects.
    Burden Statement: Burden in this context means the time expended by 
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide the 
information requested. This includes the time needed to review 
instructions; to develop, acquire, install, and utilize technology and 
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating, and verifying 
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and 
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to 
a collection of information; to search data sources; to complete and 
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise 
disclose the information. The total annual burden hours estimated for 
this Information Collection Request are summarized in the table below.
