Proposed Project Developing a Self-Management Tool for Individuals with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus--New--National Center for Chronic Disease Preventions and Health Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system produces antibodies to cells within the body leading to widespread inflammation and tissue damage. SLE has a variety of clinical manifestations and can affect joints, skin, the brain, lungs, kidneys, and blood vessels. Effective SLE management depends not only upon clinical interventions, but also on self-management-- those things done on a day-to-day basis to manage SLE. SLE self-management requires gaining essential knowledge, skills, and confidence to manage the condition. CDC previously launched a two-year project called ``Filling a Gap: Creating Educational Program, Tools, or Materials to Enhance Self- Management in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus'' to identify and address the needs of lupus patients in practicing effective self-management. The purpose of this project is to develop a SLE self-management tool to improve the ability of people living with lupus to manage their condition. The proposed information collection will assess a prototype CDC SLE self-management tool that is in development to ensure that the tool is usable and useful to members of the target audience. The tool is expected to be comprised of multiple SLE self-management resources that may include, but are not limited to: Education resources about fatigue management, pain management, healthy diet, and exercise; symptom trackers; medication trackers; appointment calendars; resources about communication with family, friends, and co-workers about SLE; and strategies for coping with depression and anxiety. CDC plans to make the tool available in an electronic format (web- based or a native mobile application) and will [[Page 5127]] consider making it available as a printed resource, depending on the feedback obtained during the testing process. The information collection will also gauge the needs of the target audience(s), tool format and delivery method(s), and the tool's clarity, relevance, salience and appeal. A series of focus groups with women with a diagnosis of SLE, and one-on-one telephone interviews with men with a diagnosis of SLE will be conducted to assess the tool. The same discussion guide will be used for all information collections. The estimated burden per response for participating in a focus group discussion is two hours. The estimated burden per response for a discussion conducted via telephone interview is 45 minutes. Respondent burden also includes two hours for reviewing the prototype CDC SLE Self-management Tool in advance of the focus group meeting or telephone interview. OMB approval is requested for one year. Participation is voluntary and there are no costs to respondents other than their time. The total estimated burden hours are 646.
