Comments on mode of closure: 

This activity was defined as public health practice, was submitted for ethical review and approval by the IRB and has been proceeding without problems. The Office of the General Counsel (OCG) believes that NHSN, as it is currently being utilized by CDC, is NOT a Privacy Act system of records and provides case law to support this determination (Henke v. U.S. Department of Commerce and Fisher v. NIH). Specifically, the OGC stated that "The CDC NHSN system is similar to the computerized information in both the Henke and Fisher cases. While CDC has the capability to retrieve data by personal identifier, CDC does not, as a matter of practice or policy, retrieve data in this way. Specifically, the primary practice and policy of CDC regarding NHSN data is to retrieve data by the name of the hospital or other non-personal identifier, not an individual patient, for surveillance and public health purposes. Furthermore, patient identifiers are not necessary for NHSN to operate, and CDC does not regularly or even frequently use patient names to obtain information about these individuals." In consultation with Center Senior Staff, the program has been advised that IRB is no longer required and the protocol can be closed.
