The National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) have been conducted periodically between 1970 and 1994, and continuously since 1999 by the National Center for Health Statistics, CDC. Annually, approximately 15,411 respondents participate in some aspect of the full survey. About 10,000 complete the screener for the survey. About 142 complete the household interview only. About 5,269 complete both the household interview and the MEC examination. Up to 4,000 additional persons might participate in tests of procedures, special studies, or methodological studies (table 1). Participation in NHANES is completely voluntary and confidential. A three-year approval is requested. NHANES programs produce descriptive statistics which measure the health and nutrition status of the general population. Through the use of physical examinations, laboratory tests, and interviews NHANES studies the VerDate Mar<15>2010 17:15 Jul 19, 2013 Jkt 229001 relationship between diet, nutrition and health in a representative sample of the United States. NHANES monitors the prevalence of chronic conditions and risk factors. NHANES data are used to produce national reference data on height, weight, and nutrient levels in the blood. Results from more recent NHANES can be compared to findings reported from previous surveys to monitor changes in the health of the U.S. population over time. NCHS collects personal identification information. Participant level data items will include basic demographic information, name, address, social security number, Medicare number and participant health information to allow for linkages to other data sources such as the National Death Index and data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). A variety of agencies sponsor datacollection components on NHANES. To keep burden down, NCHS cycles in and out various components. The 2013–2014 NHANES physical examination includes the following components: Oral glucose tolerance test (ages 12 and older), grip strength (ages 6 and older), anthropometry (all ages), 24-hour dietary recall (all ages), physician’s examination (all ages, blood pressure is collected here), taste and smell (60 and older), oral health examination (ages 1 and older, fluorosis photos ages 6–19), dual X-ray absorptiometry (total body composition ages 6–59 and osteoporosis, vertebral fractures and aortic calcification ages 40 and older). While at the examination center additional interview questions are asked (6 and older), a physical activity monitor is placed for 7 days of wear (ages 3 and older) and instructions are provided for mailing it back, a second 24-hour dietary recall (all ages) is scheduled to be conducted by phone 3– 10 days later, and supplies and directions for a home urine collection (ages 20–69 for future research) is explained (this urine is mailed back). The bio-specimens collected for laboratory tests include urine, blood, vaginal and penile swabs, oral rinses and household water collection. Serum, plasma and urine specimens are stored for future testing if the participant consents. For the 2013–14 NHANES some major additions to the laboratory component PO 00000 Frm 00037 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 include the following: Additional laboratory tests related to tobacco exposure, laboratory content related to fluoride exposure, and collection of HPV swabs for males. The following major examination or laboratory items, that had been included in the 2011–2012 NHANES, were cycled out for NHANES 2013–2014: tuberculin skin testing, the respiratory health, and hearing examination components, and collection of a genetic specimen for future testing. Most sections of the NHANES interviews provide self-reported information to be used either in concert with specific examination or laboratory content, as independent prevalence estimates, or as covariates in statistical analysis (e.g., socio-demographic characteristics). Some examples include alcohol, drug, and tobacco use, sexual behavior, prescription and aspirin use, and indicators of oral, bone, reproductive, and mental health. Several interview components support the nutrition monitoring objective of NHANES, including questions about food security and nutrition program participation, dietary supplement use, and weight history/self-image/related behavior. In 2014, 24-hour urine will be collected from interested NHANES participants who have completed the NHANES examination. This information is designed to better understand sodium intake and provide a population baseline for use in monitoring trends in sodium intake in the future. This special study will be limited to a one-half sample of participants ages 20–69. One half of those successfully completing this initial collection will be asked to complete second 24-hour urine. In addition to sodium, potassium, chloride and creatinine levels will be measured. Other analyses of the urine are being considered: Fluoride, micro-albumin, phosphorus and iodine. NHANES data users include the U.S. Congress; numerous Federal agencies such as other branches of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the National Institutes of Health, and the United States Department of Agriculture; private groups such as the American Heart Association; schools of public health; and private businesses.

VerDate Mar<15>2010 Average burden per response (in hours) Chronic diseases are the leading causes of death and disability in the United States, accounting for seven of every ten deaths and affecting the quality of life for 90 million Americans. Chronic diseases represent 83% of all U.S. health care spending. Tobacco use is the single most preventable cause of death and disease in the United States. Tobacco use causes heart disease and strokes, lung cancer and many other types of cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, lung disorders, pregnancy problems, sudden infant death syndrome, gum disease and vision problems. Approximately 443,000 Americans die from tobaccorelated illnesses annually, causing more deaths than HIV/AIDS, alcohol use, cocaine use, heroin use, homicides, suicides, motor vehicle crashes, and fires combined. For every person who dies from tobacco use, 20 more people suffer with at least 1 serious tobaccorelated illness. There are also severe socio-economic consequences of tobacco use as the U.S. spends approximately $193 billion annually in direct medical expenses and lost productivity. The National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP) provides funding to health departments in States, territories, and the District of Columbia to implement and evaluate chronic disease prevention and control programs. Traditionally, support has been provided through cooperative agreements that are specific to a chronic disease or condition. In 2009, CDC announced a new cooperative agreement program for collaborative chronic disease prevention and health promotion programs (RFA DP09–901; PO 00000 Frm 00038 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 authorized under sections 301, 307, 310, and 311 of the Public Health Service Act [42 U.S.C. sections 241 and 247(b)(k)]). The new program streamlined funding, communication and collaboration in four areas that had previously been funded and evaluated independently: tobacco control, diabetes prevention and control, state-based surveillance through the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), and the Healthy Communities initiative. Due to organizational and funding changes within CDC, funding under the DP09–901 announcement has been discontinued for all activities except tobacco control. The tobacco control component is ongoing with 53 awardees: the 50 States, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands. These cooperative agreements will end on March 28, 2014, and final reports on awardee activities are due to CDC approximately 90 days after the end of the funding period. In order to maintain continuity in progress reporting through the end of the cooperative agreement, CDC requests OMB approval to continue the collection of information from tobacco control program awardees for one year. Awardees will continue to submit semiannual progress reports through a Webbased management information system (MIS). There are no changes to the number of tobacco control program respondents, the content of the information collection, the frequency of information collection, or the estimated burden per response. However, the total estimated burden hours will decrease due to discontinuation of reporting requirements for the diabetes prevention activities, state BRFSS activities, and Healthy Communities activities that were part of the original information collection request. CDC will continue to collect information about each awardee’s tobacco control objectives, planning, activities, resources, partnerships, strategies, and progress toward meeting objectives. Awardees will use the information reported through the electronic MIS to manage and coordinate their activities and to E:\FR\FM\22JYN1.SGM 22JYN1

    The National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) OMB 
No. 0920-0950, expires 11/30/2015)--revision--National Center for 
Health Statistics (NCHS), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 
(CDC).

Background and Brief Description

    Section 306 of the Public Health Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 
242k), as amended, authorizes that the Secretary of Health and Human 
Services (DHHS), acting through NCHS, shall collect statistics on the 
extent and nature of illness and disability; environmental, social and 
other health hazards; and determinants of health of the population of 
the United States.
    The National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) have 
been conducted periodically between 1970 and 1994, and continuously 
since 1999 by the National Center for Health Statistics, CDC. Annually, 
approximately 15,411 respondents participate in some aspect of the full 
survey. About 10,000 complete the screener for the survey. About 142 
complete the household interview only. About 5,269 complete both the 
household interview and the MEC examination. Up to 4,000 additional 
persons might participate in tests of procedures, special studies, or 
methodological studies (table 1). Participation in NHANES is completely 
voluntary and confidential. A three-year approval is requested.
    NHANES programs produce descriptive statistics which measure the 
health and nutrition status of the general population. Through the use 
of physical examinations, laboratory tests, and interviews NHANES 
studies the relationship between diet, nutrition and health in a 
representative sample of the United States. NHANES monitors the 
prevalence of chronic conditions and risk factors. NHANES data are used 
to produce national reference data on height, weight, and nutrient

examination (ages 1 and older, fluorosis photos ages 6-19), dual X-ray 
absorptiometry (total body composition ages 6-59 and osteoporosis, 
vertebral fractures and aortic calcification ages 40 and older). While 
at the examination center additional interview questions are asked (6

    The bio-specimens collected for laboratory tests include urine, 
blood, vaginal and penile swabs, oral rinses and household water 
collection. Serum, plasma and urine specimens are stored for future 
testing if the participant consents.
    For the 2013-14 NHANES some major additions to the laboratory 
component include the following: Additional laboratory tests related to 
tobacco exposure, laboratory content related to fluoride exposure, and 
collection of HPV swabs for males.
    The following major examination or laboratory items, that had been 
included in the 2011-2012 NHANES, were cycled out for NHANES 2013-2014: 
tuberculin skin testing, the respiratory health, and hearing 
examination components, and collection of a genetic specimen for future 
testing.
    Most sections of the NHANES interviews provide self-reported 
information to be used either in concert with specific examination or 
laboratory content, as independent prevalence estimates, or as 
covariates in statistical analysis (e.g., socio-demographic 
characteristics). Some examples include alcohol, drug, and tobacco use,

bone, reproductive, and mental health. Several interview components 
support the nutrition monitoring objective of NHANES, including 
questions about food security and nutrition program participation, 
dietary supplement use, and weight history/self-image/related behavior. 
In 2014, 24-hour urine will be collected from interested NHANES 
participants who have completed the NHANES examination. This 
information is designed to better understand sodium intake and provide 
a population baseline for use in monitoring trends in sodium intake in
