SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CPSC
seeks to renew the following currently
approved collection of information:
Title: National Electronic Injury
Surveillance System (NEISS) and
Follow-up Activities for Product Related
Injuries.
OMB Number: 3041–0029.
Type of Review: Extension of
collection.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Affected Public: Hospitals and
individuals.
General Description of Collection: The
Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA)
requires the Commission to collect
information related to the cause and
prevention of death, injury, and illness
associated with consumer products. 15
U.S.C. 2054(a). CPSC conducts
continuing studies and investigations of
deaths, injuries, diseases, other health
impairments, and economic losses
resulting from incidents involving
consumer products. CPSC obtains
information about product-related
deaths, injuries, and illnesses from a
variety of sources, including news
outlets, death certificates, consumer
complaints, and medical facilities. In
addition, CPSC operates the National
Electronic Injury Surveillance System
(NEISS) to collect data on consumer
product-related injuries treated in
hospital emergency departments in the
United States. CPSC also uses the NEISS
system to collect information on
childhood poisonings in accordance
with the Poison Prevention Packaging
Act of 1970.
From these sources, the CPSC selects
cases of interest for further investigation
by contacting individuals who
witnessed or were injured in incidents
involving consumer products. These
investigations are conducted on-site
(face-to-face), by telephone, or by the
internet. This information is also
collected by contacting state and local
officials, including police, coroners and
fire investigators, and others with
knowledge of the incident.
CPSC uses the information from this
collection to support development and
improvement of voluntary standards;
proceedings for the development of
mandatory standards and regulations;
information and education campaigns;
and administrative and judicial
proceedings for enforcement of the
statutes, standards, and regulations
administered by the agency. The
information collected informs the

agency in its efforts to remove unsafe
products from channels of distribution
and consumers’ homes, and it provides
information to the public about the
safety of consumer products.1
Estimated Number of Respondents:
CPSC estimates a total number of 3,110
respondents, annually. CPSC estimates
160 respondents to NEISS, which
includes hospitals that directly report
information to NEISS and hospitals that
allow access to a CPSC contractor who
collects the data for NEISS. CPSC
estimates 2,950 individual respondents
expected to be interviewed by CPSC for
further investigations of reported cases.
Estimated Time per Response: All
NEISS data are reported electronically
and NEISS coders directly submit data
to CPSC through the internet on a CPSCdeveloped application called
WebNEISS. The NEISS coders review an
estimated 4.5 million emergency
department charts annually. Each chart
review requires approximately 30
seconds to review and determine if the
record is reportable. On average, the

1.15 million reportable records take 2
minutes each to enter into WebNEISS.
Records that qualify for a special study
take an additional 90 seconds to 2
minutes to code. Collecting emergency
department records for review,
correcting error messages, and other
tasks takes between 2.5 and 6 hours
weekly. Respondents also spend about
8–36 hours per year participating in
related activities (training, evaluations,
and communicating with other hospital
staff). The average burden per
respondent is 720 hours. However, the
total burden hours on each respondent
varies, due to differences in the sizes of
the hospitals (e.g., small rural hospitals
versus large metropolitan hospitals).
The smallest hospital will report an
estimated 250 cases with a burden of
about 150 hours, while the largest
hospital will report an estimated 65,000
cases with a burden of about 4,500
hours.
Information for follow-up
investigations from NEISS and other

sources is collected through traditional
face-to-face, telephone, or internet-based
interviews with consumers, witnesses,
and other knowledgeable parties, such
as fire, police, and healthcare
professionals. On average, an on-site
interview takes about 4.5 hours. CPSC
staff also complete about 750 in-depth
investigations (IDIs) by telephone
through the use of a Computer Assisted
Telephone Interview (CATI) or selfadministered Computer Assisted
Internet Interviews (CAII)
questionnaires. Each CATI or CAII IDI
requires about 20 minutes to complete.
CPSC estimates 13,523 annual burden
hours on these respondents: 13,275
hours for face-to-face interviews and
248 hours for in-depth telephone or
internet interviews.
Total Estimated Annual Burden:
Table 1 summarizes the burden of the
collection. The total estimated
annualized burden to respondents is
128,523 hours (115,248 for NEISS
respondents and 13,523 for individuals).

Total Estimated Annual Cost to
Respondents: The total costs to NEISS
respondents are estimated at
approximately $6.9 million. NEISS
respondents enter into contracts with
CPSC and are compensated for these
costs. The average cost per respondent
is estimated to be about $43,000. The
average cost per burden hour is
estimated to be $60 per hour (including
wages and overhead). However, the
actual cost to each respondent varies
due to the type of respondent (hospital
versus CPSC contractor), size of
hospital, and regional differences in
wages and overhead. Therefore, the
actual annual cost for any given
respondent may vary between $3,000 at
a small rural hospital, and $550,000 at
the largest metropolitan hospital.
CPSC estimates the value of the time
required for reporting by other
respondents to be $46.84 an hour, the
average cost for employee compensation

for civilian workers (U.S. Bureau of
Labor Statistics, ‘‘Employer Costs for
Employee Compensation,’’ September
2024: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/
archives/ecec_12172024.pdf). At this
valuation, the estimated annual cost to
the public is about $633,417 (13,523
burden hours × $46.84 per hour =
$633,417.32).
Response to Public Comments: The
Commission received four public
comments. Three commenters, two
anonymous and one from ASTM
International Committee F15 on
Consumer Products, expressed support
for the renewal of information
collection, with one anonymous
commenter suggesting that the
Commission utilize artificial
intelligence (AI) to enhance information
gathering and analysis. With the
implementation of WebNEISS in 2024,
CPSC integrated AI into the NEISS data
collection to identify potential

misentries based on logical
inconsistencies. CPSC staff continue to
explore, test, implement, and utilize
advanced AI in all phases of the NEISS
data collection, processing, and
dissemination.
The remaining commenter is Best
Practice Quality LLC, which states it is
a consulting firm. It recommended
expanding the data fields to include
product identifiers, usage context, and
product condition to improve the
quality and utility of NEISS data. It
encouraged CPSC to provide prompts to
hospital personnel to capture details
about product involvement. It also
encouraged the use of modern
technologies to reduce reporting burden
while providing accuracy. In addition, it
encouraged collaboration with
stakeholders to refine the data taxonomy
and align NEISS inputs with evolving
product safety standards.

1 Through Interagency Agreements, the CPSC also
has used and can use the NEISS system to collect
information on injuries for the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) (NEISS All Injury
Program (NEISS–AIP)). In addition to the standard

data variables that have been collected and can be
collected on all NEISS injuries, the NEISS–AIP
collects additional variables on several studies for
CDC (Firearm-Related Injuries, Adverse Drug
Events, Assaults, and Self- Inflicted Violence) and

one study on non-crash motor vehicle-related
injuries for the National Highway and
Transportation Safety Administration (NHTSA).

Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 99 / Friday, May 23, 2025 / Notices

NEISS is a voluntary program that
relies on existing medical records
information collected by hospital
emergency departments using their
existing infrastructure. Doctors, nurses,
and intake personnel note what
occurred that led to the injury, which
often includes the mention of a
consumer product, however, they rarely
capture product brand names and
models in their work as such
information is rarely relevant to patient
care. The narratives will sometimes
describe whether a product was new or
used, and the way the product was
involved, to provide usage context.
CPSC makes efforts to encourage
medical staff at NEISS hospitals to
include consumer product information
in their records documentation, but the
staff in the hospital departments
ultimately decide what will go into the
medical record which exists primarily
for the hospital and its patients.
CPSC does not include brands or
models in the data it shares publicly
with ASTM due to restrictions in
section 6(b) of the Consumer Product
Safety Act. 15 U.S.C. 2055(b). With
regard to the use of modern
technologies, as mentioned above, CPSC
uses AI-assisted logic in the use of its
internet-enabled application to collect
data.
Making changes to data taxonomy is
done judiciously, as one of the functions
of NEISS is to be able to detect changes
over time to determine whether safety
advances and interventions have been
successful and to what degree. Agency
staff meets regularly to discuss coding
practices, including adding or altering
product codes to account for changes in
the products associated with injuries.
Staff assigned to voluntary standards
work have contributed to these
deliberations, which has led to changes
as needed.

Secretary, Consumer Product Safety
Commission.
