(3) Chondroprotective effects: Pain
intensity in OA is positively associated
with the degree of joint degradation
(Ref. 5). HA has been reported to have
chondroprotective effects by reducing
the degradation and/or restoration of
cartilage (Refs. 11 and 14). According to
the scientific literature, much of the
mechanisms responsible for these
effects are through molecular pathways
(e.g., CD44-initiated pathways) that have
downstream biological effects that act to
alter the disease state of the joint by the
synthesis of extracellular matrix (ECM)
proteins (e.g., collagen type II) and joint
components (e.g., increased
proteoglycan and glycosaminoglycan)
(Refs. 2, 9, 11, and 14). Collectively,
these binding interactions of HA may
act on molecular pathways that serve to
protect and restore cartilage.
Taken together, most of the effects
described above (i.e., anti-inflammatory,
analgesic, and chondroprotective) are
achieved through various molecular
pathways that depend on the direct
interaction of HA with bodily
components (e.g., cellular receptors) and
downstream activation of specific
signaling pathways.
Additionally, although injection of
HA provides mechanical effects (e.g.,
shock absorption), it is believed that
such effects are limited due to the short
half-life of HA (Refs. 2 and 15).
Exogenous-introduced HA has been
reported to have a half-life of a few days
or up to 30 days for cross-linked
versions (Refs. 2 and 15). Nevertheless,
treatment with HA has been reported to
result in clinical therapeutic effect for
up to 6 months following injection (Ref.
9). In other words, treatment with HA
has been reported to continue reduction
in pain long after it is cleared from the
knee joint. This further supports that
HA achieves its primary intended
purpose of the treatment of pain in OA
of the knee through chemical action
within the body (e.g., through its antiinflammatory and chondroprotective
effects that act to mitigate the
underlying OA condition).
Because the current published
scientific literature supports that HA
achieves its primary intended purpose
of the treatment of pain in OA of the
knee through chemical action, and
therefore, HA for this use may not meet
the definition of a device, sponsors of
HA products who intend to submit a
PMA or a supplement to a PMA for a
change in indications for use,
formulation, or route of administration
are encouraged to obtain an informal or
formal classification and jurisdictional
determination through a Pre-RFD or
RFD, respectively, from FDA prior to
submission. If a sponsor believes their
VerDate Sep<11>2014
00:45 Dec 18, 2018
Jkt 247001
product meets the device definition,
they may provide relevant evidence in
the pre-RFD or RFD.

Information Collection Request Title:
HRSA Ryan White HIV/AIDS Program
(RWHAP) AIDS Education and Training
Centers (AETC) Evaluation Activities,
OMB No. 0915–0281—Revision
Abstract: The RWHAP AETC
program, authorized by Title XXVI of
the Public Health Service Act, supports
a network of regional and national
centers that conduct targeted, multidisciplinary education and training
programs for health care providers
serving people living with HIV (PLWH).
The purpose of the RWHAP Regional
AETC program is to increase the size
and strengthen the skills of the current
and novice HIV clinical workforce in
the United States. Through the
provision of specialized professional
education and training, the RWHAP
Regional AETCs aim to improve
outcomes along the HIV care continuum
including diagnosis, linkage, retention,
and viral suppression and to reduce HIV
incidence by improving the
achievement and maintenance of viral
load suppression of PLWH. In addition,
the RWHAP AETC program includes the
National Coordinating Resource Center
(NCRC), which offers a virtual library of
online training resources for adaptation
by HIV care providers and other
healthcare professionals to meet local
training needs. The RWHAP AETC
NCRC works closely with the HRSA
HIV/AIDS Bureau (HAB) to coordinate
cross-regional collaborative efforts,
manage the NCRC website, plan and
execute the national RWHAP Clinical
Conference, and develop an online
curriculum for clinical learners.
The RWHAP AETC proposes several
revisions to the Event Records (ER) and
the Participant Information Form (PIF).
The ER will have nine new data
elements; however, only five data
elements will require responses from all
respondents. The option to respond to
the other four data elements will
depend on how participants respond to
previous questions. The PIF will have
one new data element that asks whether
respondents prescribe anti-retroviral
therapy to their patients. Three data
elements were also deleted. These
revisions reflect changes in the National
AETC program guidance on reporting
sources of funding and multi-session
events. With a net increase of seven data
elements across both the ER and PIF
instruments, respondent burden is
anticipated to increase slightly. In
addition, HRSA HAB has modified the
data instruments not only to improve
the logical flow of questions within each
instrument but also to improve the
overall clarity of each of the questions
being asked.
Need and Proposed Use of the
Information: As part of an ongoing effort
to evaluate RWHAP AETC activities,
information is needed on AETC training
sessions, clinical consultations, and
technical assistance activities. Each
regional center collects information on
RWHAP AETC training events and is
required to report aggregate data on
their activities to HRSA’s HAB. The goal
of national data collection efforts is to
create a uniform set of data elements
that will produce an accurate summary
of the national scope of RWHAP AETC
professional training, consultation, and
events. The elements included in the
national database have been selected for
their relevance in demonstrating the
RWHAP AETCs’ efforts in achieving the
program’s stated goals: To improve care
for PLWH by providing education,
training, and clinical consultation; and
to provide support to clinicians and
other providers. HRSA HAB uses the
data collected when conducting
programmatic assessments and to
determine future program needs. The
national data elements are intended to
be a meaningful core set of elements
that individual RWHAP AETCs can use
in program and strategic planning.
HRSA HAB also uses this information to
respond to requests from HHS,
Congress, and others.
Likely Respondents: RWHAP AETC
trainees are asked to complete the PIF
at the start or conclusion of an event.
Trainers are asked to complete an ER for
each training event they conduct during
the year. In addition, each regional
RWHAP AETC (eight total) and the
RWHAP AETC National Coordinating
Resource Center will compile these data
into a data set and submit to HRSA HAB
once a year.
Burden Statement: Burden in this
context means the time expended by
persons to generate, maintain, retain,
disclose, or provide the information
requested. This includes the time
needed to review instructions; to
develop, acquire, install, and utilize
technology and systems for the purpose
of collecting, validating, and verifying
information, processing and
maintaining information, and disclosing
and providing information; to train
personnel and to be able to respond to
a collection of information; to search
data sources; to complete and review
the collection of information; and to
transmit or otherwise disclose the
information. The total annual burden
hours estimated for this Information
Collection Request are summarized in
the table below.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Information Collection Request Title:
The Maternal, Infant, and Early
Childhood Home Visiting Program
Quarterly Data Collection, OMB
Number: 0906–0016—Revision.
Abstract: This clearance request is for
continued approval of the Maternal,
Infant, and Early Childhood Home
Visiting (MIECHV) Program Quarterly
Data Collection. The MIECHV Program,
administered by HRSA in partnership
with the Administration for Children
and Families (ACF), supports voluntary,
evidence-based home visiting services
during pregnancy and to parents with
young children up to kindergarten
entry. States, certain non-profit
organizations, and Tribal entities are
eligible to receive funding from the
MIECHV Program and have the
flexibility to tailor the program to serve
the specific needs of their communities.
After taking into consideration public
comments in response to the 60-day
notice published in the Federal Register
on February 21, 2018 (83 FR 7481),
HRSA is proposing revisions to the data
