Background and Brief Description
Preventing healthcare-associated
infections (HAI) and encouraging
appropriate use of antimicrobials are
priorities of both the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services and the
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention. The burden and
epidemiology of HAIs and antimicrobial
use in U.S. nursing homes is currently
unknown. Understanding the scope and
magnitude of all types of HAIs in
patient populations across the spectrum
of U.S. healthcare facilities is essential
to the development of effective
prevention and control strategies and
policies.
HAI prevalence and antimicrobial use
estimates can be obtained through
prevalence surveys in which data are

collected in healthcare facilities during
a short, specified time period. Essential
steps in reducing the occurrence of
HAIs and the prevalence of resistant
pathogens include estimating the
burden, types, and causative organisms
of HAIs; assessing the nature and extent
of antimicrobial use in U.S. healthcare
facilities; and assessing the nature and
extent of antimicrobial use.
Prevalence surveys, in which data are
collected in healthcare facilities during
a short, specified time period represent
an efficient and cost-effective alternative
to prospective studies of HAI and
antimicrobial use incidence. Given the
absence of existing HAI and
antimicrobial use data collection
mechanisms for nursing homes,
prevalence surveys represent a robust
method for obtaining the surveillance
data required to identify HAIs and
antibiotic use practices that should be
targeted for more intensive surveillance
and to guide and evaluate prevention
efforts.
The methods for the data collection
are based on those used in CDC hospital
prevalence surveys and informed by a
CDC pilot survey conducted in nine
U.S. nursing homes. The survey will be
performed by the CDC through the
Emerging Infections Program (EIP), a
collaboration with CDC and 10 state
health departments with experience in
HAI surveillance and data collection.
Respondents are nursing homes
certified by the Centers for Medicare &
Medicare Services in EIP states. Nursing
homes will be randomly selected for
participation. The EIP will recruit 20
nursing homes in each of the 10 EIP
sites. Nursing home participation is
voluntary.
OMB approval is requested for three
years. Participation is voluntary and
there are no costs to respondents other
than their time. The total estimated
annual burden hours are 5,217.

Background and Brief Description
Intimate Partner Violence (IPV) is a
serious, preventable public health
problem that affects millions of
Americans and results in serious
consequences for victims, families, and
communities. IPV occurs between two
people in a close relationship. The term
‘‘intimate partner’’ describes physical,
sexual, or psychological harm by a
current or former partner or spouse. IPV
can impact health in many ways,
including long-term health problems,
emotional impacts, and links to negative
health behaviors. IPV exists along a
continuum from a single episode of
violence to ongoing battering; many
victims do not report IPV to police,
friends, or family. In 2002, authorized
by the Family Violence Prevention
Services Act (FVPSA), CDC developed
the Domestic Violence Prevention
Enhancements and Leadership Through
Alliances (DELTA) Program, with a
focus on the primary prevention of IPV.
The purpose of the DELTA FOCUS
program is to promote the prevention of
IPV through the implementation and
evaluation of strategies that create a
foundation for the development of
practice-based evidence. By

emphasizing primary prevention, this
program will support comprehensive
and coordinated approaches to IPV
prevention. On March 2, 2013, CDC
awarded 10 cooperative agreements to
state domestic violence coalitions
(SDVCs).
Each SDVC is required to identify and
fund one to two well-organized, broadbased, active local organizations
(referred to as coordinated community
responses or CCRs) that are already
engaging in, or are at capacity to engage
in, IPV primary prevention strategies
affecting the structural determinants of
health at the societal and/or community
levels of the SEM. SDVCs must facilitate
and support local-level implementation
and hire empowerment evaluators (EEs)
to support the evaluation of IPV
prevention strategies by the CCRs.
SDVCs must also implement and with
their empowerment evaluators, evaluate
state-level IPV prevention strategies.
The CDC seeks OMB approval for
three years to collect program
evaluation data. Information will be
collected from awardees funded under
FOA–CE13–1302, the DELTA FOCUS
(Domestic Violence Prevention
Enhancement and Leadership Through
Alliances, Focusing on Outcomes for
Communities United with States)
cooperative agreement program. The
information will be used to guide
program improvements by CDC in the
national DELTA FOCUS program
implementation and program
improvements by SDVCs in
implementation of the program within
their state. Not collecting this data could
result in inappropriate implementation,
resulting in ineffective use of tax payer
resources. Thus, this data collection is
an essential program evaluation activity
and the results will not be generalizable
to the universe of study. The estimated
annual burden hours are 59. There is no
cost to respondents other than their
time.
