concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of

publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether

collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and

Proposed Project
Zika Postpartum Emergency Response
Survey (ZPER), Puerto Rico, 2017—New
ICR—National Center for Chronic
Disease Prevention and Health
Promotion (NCCDPHP), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
In December 2015, the Puerto Rico
Department of Health (PRDH) reported
the first locally acquired (index) case of
Zika virus disease in the United States.
Since then, 38,733 cases have been
confirmed in Puerto Rico, including
3,076 among pregnant women. Because
the most common mosquito vector of
Zika virus, Aedes aegypti, is present
throughout Puerto Rico, Zika virus
transmission is ongoing. The island has
been designated at the highest level of
risk according to a 3-tiered Zika virus
infection risk scale developed by CDC’s
Emergency Operations Center (EOC).
While pregnant women do not differ
from the general population in terms of
susceptibility to Zika virus infection or
severity of disease, they are at risk for
adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes
associated with Zika virus infection
during pregnancy. After review of the
available evidence, CDC concluded that
Zika virus infection during pregnancy is
a cause of microcephaly and other brain
defects.
PO 00000
Frm 00046
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

Given the adverse pregnancy and
birth outcomes associated with Zika
virus infection during pregnancy, it is
more important than ever to understand
the Zika-related concerns of pregnant
women, interactions regarding Zika
between pregnant women and their
health care providers, sources of
information that pregnant women
consult regarding Zika virus, and use of
recommended precautions by pregnant
women to reduce the risk of exposure to
Zika virus. This information was
successfully collected for the first time
in a hospital-based survey of women
24–48 hours after delivery by the Puerto
Rico Department of Health in the fall of
2016 (Emergency OMB approval,
control #0920–1127), and has been
critical for informing clinical guidance,
developing communication messages,
and providing resources for pregnant
women.
The currently proposed data
collection includes three components.
The first component is a telephone
follow-back survey among a subset of
the original cohort of participants. This
component would be the first
population-based sample of postpartum
women who were pregnant during the
early period of the Zika outbreak, and
would provide information on the
accessibility and utilization of
postpartum and newborn services, and
continued adherence to Zika prevention
behaviors. The second component
would repeat the hospital-based survey
in a second cohort of pregnant women
to assess the effectiveness of emergency
response efforts from the first mosquito
season and to determine where there is
a need for further refinement of efforts
and outstanding resource gaps. As with
the first cohort of women who
participated in hospital-based survey, a
subset of women in this second cohort
would be invited to subsequently
participate in a telephone follow-up
survey. The third and final component
will be a separate hospital-based survey
for fathers of the infants born to mothers
in the second cohort of women
completing the hospital-based survey.
This component would assess father’s
concerns about Zika related birth
defects and contribution to prevention
efforts.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time to participate.

Background and Brief Description
Zika virus (ZIKV) infection is a
mosquito-borne flavivirus transmitted
by Aedes species mosquitoes, and also
through sexual and mother-to-child
transmission; laboratory-acquired
infections have also been reported.
Evidence of human ZIKV infection was
observed sporadically in Africa and
Asia prior to 2007 when an outbreak of
ZIKV caused an estimated 5,000
infections in the State of Yap, Federated
States of Micronesia.
