Explanation for Program Changes or Adjustments

This Reinstatement includes proposed changes to 1 approved NHSN data collection detailed below:

Patient Safety Component
Form Number and Title	Type of Change	Itemized Changes / Justification	Impact to Burden
57.130 Pathogens of High Consequence	Addition	This information collection request includes an update to one disease, Polio, to the Pathogens of High Consequence form. The original collection captured the number of patients newly admitted and currently hospitalized with certain diseases in acute care hospitals,(i.e. Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF), Dengue, Ebola, Influenza A (H5), Lassa, Marburg, Measles, Mpox, MERS-CoV, Nipah, Oropuche, Toxigenic Vibrio cholerae, broken down by adult patients and pediatric patients. One additional disease, Polio, is being added to the data collection. Polio is listed on the CDC’s Office of Readiness and Response website as an active response. The New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH) notified CDC on July 18, 2022, about a case of polio in an unvaccinated patient. NYSDOH, with CDC’s support, worked with the affected communities to assess any potential risk and help put in place prevention measures like vaccination clinics to keep people from getting sick. It is crucial for CDC to be aware of cases of these select infectious diseases of public health concern, including Polio, to help ensure that local and state authorities are equipped to contain and prevent further spread. Facilities enrolled in the NHSN Patient Safety Component will be asked to select the specific diseases they are reporting on and then provide the overall number of patients hospitalized with confirmed disease along with stratification of disease in adult and pediatric patients. The data collection will be collected electronically via the NHSN application.	None
