Proposed Project
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).
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
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 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.
There is no cost to respondents other
than their time.

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
