Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review, 49523-49524 [2013-19675]

Download as PDF 49523 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 157 / Wednesday, August 14, 2013 / Notices Key Questions 1d, 2d, and 3d (Adverse Events or Harms) • Adverse effects or harms associated with the imaging techniques (e.g., test-related anxiety, adverse events secondary to venipuncture, contrast allergy, exposure to radiation). • Adverse effects or harms associated with test-associated diagnostic workup (e.g., harms of biopsy or harms associated with workup of other incidental tumors discovered on imaging). Proposed Project Timing • No restrictions will be placed on timing. • For studies of comparative effectiveness, duration of followup, timing of interventions, and frequency of interventions will be recorded. Health professionals recommend at least 12 months of breastfeeding, and Healthy People 2020 establishes specific national breastfeeding goals. In addition to increasing overall rates, a significant public health priority in the United States (U.S.) is to reduce variation in breastfeeding rates across population subgroups. Because hospital practices strongly influence infant feeding outcomes, the health care system is one of the most important and effective settings for improving breastfeeding initiation rates. In 2007, CDC conducted the first national survey of Maternity Practices in Infant Nutrition and Care, known as the mPINC Survey. The survey inquired about care practices and support for breastfeeding throughout the maternity stay as well as staff training and maternity care practices. Following the collection of baseline information in 2007, the mPINC survey was conducted again in 2009 and 2011. CDC proposes to repeat the mPINC in 2013 and 2015, with changes. In previous cycles of data collection, two versions of the mPINC survey instrument were used: one for hospitals and one for birth centers. In 2013 and 2015, one instrument will be used for both hospitals and birth centers. There are no changes to survey content, other than the minor changes needed to produce a single streamlined instrument for all facilities. There is no change to the estimated burden per response (30 minutes). Similarly, in 2013 and 2015 screening for eligible facilities will be conducted with a single screening instrument. Settings • All relevant care settings (e.g., primary and secondary care). Dated: August 6, 2013. Carolyn M. Clancy, AHRQ Director.

Background and Brief Description Facilities will identified by using information obtained through the American Association of Birth Centers (AABC) and the American Hospital Association (AHA) Annual Survey of Hospitals. Facilities that will be invited to participate in the survey include those that participated in previous iterations and those that were invited but did not participate in the previous iterations, as well as those that have become eligible since the most recent mPINC survey. All birth centers and hospitals with ≥1 registered maternity bed will be screened for eligibility via a brief phone call to assess their eligibility, identify additional locations, and identify the appropriate point of contact. As with the initial surveys, a major goal of the 2013 and 2015 follow-up surveys is to be fully responsive to facilities’ needs for information and technical assistance. CDC will provide direct feedback to respondents in a customized benchmark report of their results and identify and document progress since 2007 on their quality improvement efforts. CDC will use information from the mPINC surveys to identify, document, and share information related to incremental changes in practices and care processes over time at the hospital, state, and national levels. Data will be also used by researchers to better understand the relationships between hospital characteristics, maternity-care practices, state level factors, and breastfeeding initiation and continuation rates. OMB approval is requested for three years. On an annualized basis, CDC estimates initial contact with 2,570 facilities that will complete Part A of the Screening Telephone Call, and 2,200 respondents that will also complete Part B of the Screening Telephone Call. CDC estimates receipt of completed surveys from 1,825 facilities. Participation in the survey is voluntary, and responses may be submitted by mail or through a Webbased system. There are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated annualized burden hours are 1,103.
