Agency Forms Undergoing Paperwork Reduction Act Review
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers
for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) has submitted the information
collection request titled ``Assessment for the Get Ahead of Sepsis
(GAOS) Consumer and Healthcare Professional Campaign'' to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval. CDC previously
published a ``Proposed Data Collection Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations'' notice on January 31, 2022, to obtain comments from
the public and affected agencies. CDC received two comments related to
the previous notice. This notice serves to allow an additional 30 days
for public and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this proposed information
collection project. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly
interested in comments that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the agencies estimate of the burden of
the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those
who are to respond, including, through the use of appropriate
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses; and
(e) Assess information collection costs.
To request additional information on the proposed project or to
obtain a copy of the information collection plan and instruments, call
(404) 639-7570. Comments and recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of
this notice to <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain">www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain</a>. Find this particular
information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day Review--
Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions regarding the items contained in
this notice to the Attention: CDC Desk Officer, Office of Management
and Budget, 725 17th Street NW, Washington, DC 20503 or by fax to (202)
395-5806. Provide written comments within 30 days of notice
publication.
Proposed Project
Assessment for the Get Ahead of Sepsis (GAOS) Consumer and
Healthcare Professional Campaign--New--National Center for Emerging and
Zoonotic Infectious Diseases (NCEZID), Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Sepsis is a life threating emergency, and it is the body's
overactive and toxic response to an infection. Each year 1.7 million
adults in the United States develop sepsis, with 270,000 fatalities.
Sepsis is the leading cause of death in hospitals and one out of three
hospital fatalities are due to sepsis infection. Sepsis management in
U.S. hospitals is the highest when compared to inpatient cost for all
other medical conditions. Annual costs are estimated to be over $62
billion.
In media and public health campaigns, antimicrobial resistance and
sepsis are rarely presented together which does not make their linkage
apparent. It has been concluded that sepsis and antimicrobial
stewardship should not be discussed in isolation. Surprisingly, 24% of
adults in the U.S. have never heard of sepsis, so this presents a
unique opportunity for future messaging campaigns.
The goals of the Get Ahead of Sepsis (GAOS) educational campaign
are to prevent and reduce infections that lead to sepsis and to
optimize healthcare quality and patient safety by raising awareness,
knowledge, and motivating behavior change related to sepsis prevention,
early recognition, and appropriate treatment among consumer and
healthcare professional (HCP) audiences. A panel survey will be
utilized to recruit participants. Surveys will be distributed to
consumer audiences and HCPs both before and after the media campaign
and partner outreach.
Consumer audiences include:
(1) Cancer patients and their caregivers,
(2) Patients who survived severe COVID-19 or sepsis and their
caregivers,
(3) Parents of children 12 and younger,
(4) Adults who care for a family member age 65+, (5) Men aged 65+
with one or more chronic conditions, and (6) Healthy adults 65+
HCP audiences include:
(1) Emergency Medical Services personnel,
(2) Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants who work at urgent
care clinics,
(3) Emergency Department triage nurses,
(4) General medical ward staff,
(5) Primary care physicians,
(6) Long-term care (LTC) nurses, and
(7) LTC medical technicians and sitters.
This program evaluation will assist CDC in determining if the GAOS
media campaign, along with partner outreach, was successful in raising
knowledge and awareness and motivating behavior change among consumer
and HCP audiences in select markets. The information gathered from this
evaluation will also be used to inform refinement and implementation of
the campaign (materials and tactics).
CDC requests OMB approval for an estimated 1366 annual burden
hours. There is no cost to respondents other than their time to
participate.
