**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  Proposed Project Synthesis of AHRQ–Funded HAI Projects

The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) requests that the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approve, under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, AHRQ’s collection of information for the Synthesis of AHRQ–Funded HAI Projects.

For approximately a decade, AHRQ has conducted research on preventing healthcareassociated infections (HAIs), both internally and through contractsand grants. AHRQ’s grant- and contractsupported projects have been directed atthe major types of HAIs: Central-lineassociated bloodstream infections (CLABSI), catheter-associated urinary tract infections (CAUTI), surgical site infections (S SI), ventilator-associated pneumonia (VAP), methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA), and Clostridium difficile (C. cliff.). Projects have addressed the problem of HAIs in diverse healthcare settings, including hospitals, ambulatory settings (ambulatory surgery centers, end-stage renal disease facilities, and outpatient clinics and offices), and long-term care facilities. AHRQ’s portfolio of HAI projects has emphasized a combination of research and implementation initiatives. In the latter category, a major focus of AHRQ’s efforts has been to deploy tools that can improve provider performance and reduce HAIs. Based on the earlier success of the Michigan Keystone project, AHRQ has funded projects to implement the Comprehensive Unit-based Safety Program (CUSP) to address CLABSI and CAUTI nationwide. Data are now emerging that demonstrate the success of CUSP in reducing CLABSI in hospitals across the nation.

Between 2007 and 2010, AHRQ funded 40 contracts and 18 grants focusing on expanding the HAI knowledge base and implementing HAI prevention strategies. Today it is


### 20821 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 67 / Friday, April 6, 2012 / Notices

necessary to look across these projects in order to (1) identify, document, and synthesize their findings and results to ensure that AHRQ, healthcare professionals, and the public can make best use of these findings and (2) identify remaining gaps in the HAI science base to enable AHRQ to fund future studies that will address these needs. The synthesis will draw on several data sources, including interviews with project leaders. In addition to learning about studies that have not published peer-reviewed manuscripts, the interviews will enable the project team to delve into project details that are not typically available in publications, such as the project leader’s motivation for responding to the request for proposal, challenges faced in implementing the project, changes in the project’s delivery schedule or work plan, experts’ views on how HAI prevention evidence generated by a specific project fits into the HAI research agenda more broadly, and remaining gaps in the HAI knowledge base.

AHRQ has contracted with IMPAQ International, LLC, to develop this synthesis, identify gaps, and promote the widespread application of successful HAI prevention approaches. This research has the following goals: (1) Identify and document findings and synthesize results of AHRQ-funded HAI projects; (2) Disseminate key findings from the HAI projects; and (3) Identify remaining gaps in the HAI knowledge base. This study is being conducted by AHRQ through its contractor, IMPAQ International, LLC and its subcontractor, the RAND Corporation, pursuant to AHRQ’s statutory authority to conduct and support research and disseminate information on healthcare and on systems for the delivery of such care, including activities with respect to the quality, effectiveness, efficiency, appropriateness and value of healthcare services and with respect to quality measurement and improvement. 42 U.S.C. 299a(a)(1) and (2).

Method of Collection

To achieve the goals of this project the following data collection will be implemented:

(1) Interviews with contractors— Interviews will be conducted with the project leaders (project directors or project managers) from 40 HAT contractors. The purpose of these interviews is to identify (a) key findings, (b) gaps in knowledge base, (c) lessons learned, (d) effective approaches for preventing and reducing HAIs, and e) opportunities for additional projects focused on generating and implementing knowledge on preventing HAIs.

(2) Interviews with grantees— Interviews will be conducted with the project leaders (principal investigators) from 18 HAI grantees. Similar to the interviews with contractors, the purpose of these interviews is to identify (a) key findings, (b) gaps in knowledge base, (c) lessons learned, (d) effective approaches for preventing and reducing HAIs, and (e) opportunities for additional projects focused on generating and implementing knowledge on preventing HAIs. While the goals of the interviews with contractors and grantees are similar, the two audiences require separate interview protocols because their funding mechanisms and project structures differ. For example, contracts have more structured deliverable schedules than do grants and grants are more likely than contracts to be on investigator-initiated topics.

AHRQ will interview key project leaders to learn about the processes and methods used, results achieved, and lessons learned under the AHRQ-funded HAI contracts and grants. This information will enable AHRQ to identify effective approaches for preventing and reducing HAIs and for promoting the widespread application of these approaches. Finally, collecting data from these audiences will allow AHRQ to detect gaps in the HAI science base and identify opportunities for additional projects focused on generating and implementing knowledge on preventing HAIs. Estimated Annual Respondent Burden

Exhibit 1 shows the estimated annualized burden hours for the respondent’s time to participate in this evaluation. Interviews will be conducted with 40 contractors and 18 grantees and each will last about 90 minutes. The total burden hours are estimated to be 87.

The respondents are the project leaders, that is, project directors for the contracts and principal investigators for the grants. Based on the type of grant and the project leaders’ qualifications, the project leaders were categorized into three labor categories: Social Scientists and Related Workers; Epidemiologists; and Medical Scientists. For example, one project director conducting a randomized controlled trial is a physician and was categorized into the Medical Scientist labor category. Other project leaders have advanced degrees in the social sciences (e.g., gerontology) or epidemiology and were included in the Social Scientist or Epidemiologist labor categories, as appropriate.

Exhibit 2 shows the estimated annualized cost burden associated with the respondent’s time to participate in the evaluation. The total cost burden is estimated to be $3,450.
