Title: Accelerated Aging among
Vietnam-Era Veterans Survey.
OMB Control Number: 2900—NEW.
Type of Review: New collection.
Abstract: The National Center for
PTSD (NCPTSD) was recently allocated
funds by Congress to be used for
research to advance the prevention and
treatment of PTSD. The original
language of the legislation states the
following: ‘‘The committee recognizes
the importance of the VA National
Center for PTSD in promoting better
prevention, diagnoses, and treatment of
PTSD.’’ In response to this, we have
developed a study that aims to
understand how and the degree to
which warzone deployment is
associated with increased morbidity and
mortality, with particular attention to
potential differences among white,
black, and Hispanic Veterans, as well as
male and female Veterans. To this end,
we will consider multiple aspects of
military service, deployment
experiences, and current stressors of
Vietnam-era Veterans in relation to
current physical and mental health
outcomes. This information will directly
inform intervention efforts aimed at
prevention or treatment of chronic
disorders such as PTSD, depression, and
substance/alcohol use disorders, as well
as comorbid physical health conditions,
particularly in underserved portions of
our Veteran population. This type of
information can inform system-wide
interventions that can maximize
Veterans’ likelihood of receiving timely
and evidence-based healthcare, thereby
preventing long-term health problems.
Affected Public: Individuals and
households.
Estimated Annual Burden: Mail
Survey: 3,420 hours. Telephone Survey:
2,738 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: Mail Survey: 45 minutes.
Telephone Survey: 45 minutes.
