Proposed Project: Hospital Data Abstraction, Formerly Entitled Evaluation of Emergency Department Crisis Center Follow-Up-(OMB No. 0930-0337)
The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration's (SAMHSA), Center for Mental Health Services (CMHS) will conduct an evaluation to assess the impact of crisis center follow-up with patients admitted to emergency departments following a suicide attempt.
[top] The overarching purpose of the Hospital Data Abstraction, formerly
Hospitals collaborating with two cohorts (cohorts IV and V) of Lifeline crisis centers will participate in this expanded initiative. Fifteen hospitals per cohort will participate for a total of 30. Patient data will be collected for patients admitted for a suicide attempt in the two years prior to collaboration between the hospital and crisis center and for patients admitted for a suicide attempt for the two-year period after collaboration.
The Hospital Data Abstraction Form will be utilized to collect systematic patient data for patients seen in the 30 participating hospitals' emergency departments or inpatient behavioral health units. Information to be abstracted from patient data include: Demographic data, historical data, and subsequent suicidal behavioral and admission data. Data will be de-identified. Hospital staff will review patient data for qualifying ( i.e., admission to the emergency department for suicide attempt) records. Records to be reviewed will include emergency department or inpatient behavioral health unit admissions for the two years prior to crisis center and hospital collaboration and for two years following collaboration. It is expected that a total of 30,000 records will be abstracted by hospital staff and provided to the evaluation team.
This revision involves an increase in the number of participating hospital respondents and burden associated with the continuation/expansion of the already-approved Hospital Data Abstraction Form (OMB No. 0930-0337; Expiration 09/30/2016), as well as the discontinuation of data collection and burden associated with the Crisis Center Data Abstraction Form.
The estimated response burden to collect this information is as follows annualized over the requested three-year clearance period is presented below:
| Instrument | Number of respondents | Responses per respondent * | Total number of responses | Burden per response | Annual burden * |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hospital Data Abstraction Form | 30 | 334 | 10,020 | .04 | 401 |
| * Rounded to the nearest whole number. | |||||
