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).
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 Mobile
Examination Center (MEC) examination.
Up to 4,000 additional persons might
participate in tests of procedures,
special studies, or methodological

studies (see line 2 of Burden Table).
Participation in NHANES is completely
voluntary and confidential. A two-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, risk
factors, and environmental exposures.
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) 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
PO 00000

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, 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 levels, potassium,
chloride and creatinine levels will be
measured. Other analyses of the urine
are being considered: Fluoride, microalbumin, 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 to participate. The total
estimate of annualized burden is 48,986
hours.
