Proposed Project
National Electronic Disease
Surveillance System (NEDSS)—(OMB
Number 0920–0728 exp. 2/28/2011)—
Extension—Office of the Director (OD),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
CDC is responsible for the
dissemination of nationally notifiable
disease information and for monitoring
and reporting the impact of epidemic
influenza on mortality, Public Health
Services Act (42 U.S.C. 241). In April
1984, CDC Epidemiology Program Office
(EPO) in cooperation with the Council
of State and Territorial Epidemiologists
(CSTE) and epidemiologists in six states
began a pilot project, the Epidemiologic
Surveillance Project (ESP). The ESP was
designed to demonstrate the efficiency
and effectiveness of the computer
transmission of surveillance data
between CDC and the state health
departments. Each state health
department used its existing
computerized disease surveillance
system to transmit specific data
concerning each case of a notifiable
disease. CDC technicians developed
computer software to automate the
transfer of data from the state to CDC.
In June 1985, CSTE passed a
resolution supporting ESP as a workable
system for electronic transmission of
notifiable disease case reports from the
states/territories to CDC. As the program
was extended beyond the original group
of states, EPO began to provide software,
training and technical support to state
health department staff overseeing the
transition from hard-copy to fully
automated transmission of surveillance
data.
By 1989, all 50 states were using this
computerized disease surveillance
system, which was then renamed the
National Electronic
Telecommunications System for
Surveillance (NETSS) to reflect its
national scope. Core surveillance data
are transmitted to CDC by the states and
territories through NETSS. NETSS has a
standard record format for data

Frm 00070

Fmt 4703

transmitted and does not require the use
of a specific software program. The
ability of NETSS to accept records
generated by different software
programs makes it useful for the
efficient integration of surveillance
systems nationwide.
Since 1999, the CDC, Epidemiology
Program Office (EPO) has worked with
CSTE, state and local public health
system staff, and other CDC disease
prevention and control program staff to
identify information and information
technology standards to support
integrated disease surveillance. That
effort is now focused on development of
the National Electronic Disease
Surveillance System (NEDSS),
coordinated by CDC’s Deputy Director
for Integrated Health Information
Systems.
NEDSS will electronically integrate
and link together a wide variety of
surveillance activities and will facilitate
more accurate and timely reporting of
disease information to CDC and the state
and local health departments.
Consistent with recommendations from
our state and local surveillance partners
as described in the 1995 report,
Integrating Public Health Information
and Surveillance Systems, NEDSS
includes data standards, an internet
based communications infrastructure
built on industry standards. It also
includes policy-level agreements on
data access, sharing, burden reduction,
and protection of confidentiality. To
support NEDSS, CDC is supporting the
development of an information system,
the NEDSS Base System (NBS), which
will use NEDSS technical and
information standards, (http://
www.cdc.gov/od/hissb/doc/
NEDSSBaseSysDescriptioin.pdf). CDC
will receive reports from the 57
respondents (50 state, 2 cities, and 5
territorial health departments) using the
NEDSS (NETSS replacement) umbrella
of systems, that includes the National
Electronic Telecommunications System
for Surveillance (NETSS).
There are no costs to the respondents
other than their time to participate in
the survey.
The table below outlines the
annualized burden which consists of
two components. The first component is
‘‘weekly reporting’’ (52 weeks annually).
The second component is an end of year
report titled ‘‘annual reporting’’. The two
components collectively represent the
estimated annualized hours for the
submitting jurisdictions.

Proposed Project
Preventing HIV Risk Behaviors among
Hispanic Adolescents—New—National
Center for HIV/AIDS, Viral Hepatitis,
STD, and TB Prevention (NCHHSTP),
Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
This project involves the development
and evaluation of a streamlined version

of Familias Unidas, a family-based
intervention designed to prevent drug
use and unsafe sex among Hispanic
adolescents. Compared to non-Hispanic
whites, Hispanic adolescents are highly
vulnerable to acquiring HIV. Hispanic
adolescents between the ages of 13 and
19 are five times more likely to be
infected with HIV than are same-aged
non-Hispanic whites (CDC–P, 2006).
Hispanic adolescents report higher rates
of unprotected sex at last intercourse
than both non-Hispanic whites and
African Americans. Compared to nonHispanic whites and to African
Americans, Hispanic 8th and 10th
graders report the highest lifetime,
annual, and 30-day prevalence rates of
alcohol, cigarette, and licit or illicit drug
use. Drug use and unsafe sexual
behavior are risks for acquiring HIV.
Despite the urgent public health need
to stop the progress of the HIV epidemic
and to reduce health disparities in HIV
infection, especially with regard to
Hispanics, the largest and fastest
growing minority group in the nation,
Familias Unidas is the only published
intervention found to be efficacious in
preventing both drug use and unsafe
sexual behavior. Familias Unidas has
demonstrated efficacy in an intensive, 9
to 12 month version in two previous
studies in preventing drug use and
unsafe sexual behavior relative to two
attention control conditions. Laborintensive interventions are difficult to
disseminate to the larger community.
Consequently, there is an urgent need to
develop and test a streamlined version
that can be more easily disseminated to
the population. Therefore, the specific
aim of the proposed study is to evaluate
a streamlined version of Familias

Unidas. Findings from this study will
strengthen CDC’s HIV/AIDS behavioral
intervention portfolio by creation of an
effective behavioral intervention
designed specifically for Hispanic
adolescents which it currently lacks.
Approximately 400 dyads of Hispanic
adolescents and their primary caregivers
(a total of 800 people), recruited through
two high schools in Miami-Dade
County, will be screened for study
eligibility in a short interview lasting
approximately three minutes. Based on
the investigators’ prior research,
approximately 240 dyads of Hispanic
adolescents and their primary caregivers
(a total of 480 people) will be deemed
eligible for the study. Each of the
eligible dyads will be placed into one of
two groups: (1) The streamlined 5session intervention and (2) a control
group which receives standard HIV/
AIDS prevention information from the
high schools. Adolescents and
caregivers from both groups will
respond to computerized questionnaires
(ACASI) containing questions about
family functioning, HIV/AIDS risk
behaviors and substance abuse, etc.
Adolescents will spend approximately
60 minutes completing the
questionnaires, while their primary
caregivers will complete the
questionnaires in approximately 45
minutes. They will complete these
questionnaires twice annually during
the two-year period. There is no cost to
the respondents other than their time.
The average annual burden is estimated
to be 940 hours.
