PROJECT TITLE: Formative Research to Support Active Surveillance of Myalgic Encelphalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome Among Schoolchildren

PURPOSE AND USE OF COLLECTION:

The purpose of this GEN-IC is to field test an approach for surveillance of myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome (ME/CFS) by building on and improving ongoing active surveillance of chronic conditions associated with absenteeism and school withdrawal among US schoolchildren. The data from the proposed GEN-IC will be used 1) to fine-tune a new electronic data collection tool and active surveillance methods for school-level surveillance of chronic conditions, including ME/CFS; 2) to enhance technical assistance and training to support this surveillance activity; 3) to identify considerations for scaling up the piloted approach.

DESCRIPTION OF RESPONDENTS:

Respondents for the proposed data collection will be from U.S. school districts in states where physicians experienced in caring for patients with ME/CFS practice. School districts have been chosen to include urban, suburban, and rural areas. The respondents will be school nurses in the selected school districts, who will test the new data collection tool and describe their needs and experiences related to this activity; administrators in the same school districts, who will describe the impact of the activity on their district; and school data coordinators in all fifty states, who will report on training and technical assistance needs relevant to school surveillance of chronic health conditions, including ME/CFS.

CERTIFICATION:

I certify the following to be true:

  1. The collection is voluntary.

  2. The collection is low-burden for respondents and low-cost for the Federal Government.

  3. The collection is non-controversial and does not raise issues of concern to other federal agencies.

  4. Information gathered will not be used to substantially inform influential policy decisions.

  5. The study is not intended to produce results that can be generalized beyond its scope.
