Prior TOC
continue to apply: This collection is approved consistent with the
understanding that ATSDR will not be disseminating any prevalence
or incidence estimates based solely on the registration component
of the Registry. Rather, registration results will be combined with
administrative record results prior to dissemination of prevalence
rates. Furthermore, any research based on registry data should
highlight what is known about its lack of representativeness due to
its self-selected nature. ATSDR endeavors to improve both the
completeness and representativeness of the data over time.

As mandated by Congress, the goal is
to continue collecting data for the National Amyotrophic Lateral
Sclerosis (ALS) Registry to better describe the incidence and
prevalence of ALS and to identify risk factors for the disease.
ATSDR endeavors to improve the completeness, representativeness,
and accuracy of the Registry data over time. This Non-Substantive
Change Request is being submitted for the addition of a question to
Survey 17 about the use of a newly FDA approved drug, Radicava, for
the treatment of ALS. There is no change in Burden Hours or
Respondents.
