Opportunity Summary:
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), through its Procurement and Grants Office, released a discretionary grant funding opportunity titled "Research Priorities in Acute Injury Care (R01)" (Funding Opportunity Number RFA CE 09 005). This announcement focuses on strengthening the evidence base and real-world performance of acute injury care in the United States, with an emphasis on how proven practices and organized trauma care systems can be translated into better outcomes for people who are seriously injured. The activity category is health, and the relevant CFDA listing is 93.136 (Injury Prevention and Control Research and State and Community Based Programs). There is no cost sharing or matching requirement.
The program has two main research purposes. The first priority is to evaluate strategies that help translate, disseminate, implement, and encourage adoption of science-based recommendations and clinical guidelines for the care of acutely injured patients. In practical terms, this means studying how best to move established evidence and guidelines into routine use across prehospital care, emergency departments, surgery, intensive care, and other parts of the acute care pathway, including understanding barriers to uptake and what implementation approaches actually work in real settings. The second priority is to determine and evaluate which components of trauma systems contribute most to improved outcomes for acutely injured people. This can include research on how trauma systems are organized, how patients are triaged and transported, how facilities are designated and coordinated, and which system features or practices are associated with better survival, fewer complications, improved functional outcomes, or more efficient care.
In terms of funding, CDC estimated a total of about $1.6 million available for fiscal year 2009 to support roughly 6 to 8 awards. The award ceiling is listed as $200,000. The announcement was posted on October 21, 2008, with a letter of intent due November 20, 2008, and an application closing date of January 21, 2009. The estimated award/funding date was expected to be prior to August 31, 2009. The listing indicates the opportunity was archived on February 20, 2009, reflecting that it was tied to that specific application cycle.
Eligibility is broad and includes many types of organizations that might conduct applied health services and systems research in injury care. Eligible applicants include public and private institutions of higher education; nonprofit organizations (including both 501(c)(3) and certain non-501(c)(3) nonprofits, other than institutions of higher education); small businesses; other for-profit organizations (excluding small businesses in that specific category listing); and multiple levels of government such as state, county, city/township, and special district governments. It also includes federally recognized Native American tribal governments and other Native American tribal organizations.
