Single-Award Deviations From Competition Requirements: Pediatric 
Emergency Care Applied Research Network

AGENCY: Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Department 
of Health and Human Services.

ACTION: Notice of Single-Award Deviation from Competition Requirements 
for the Pediatric Emergency Care Applied Research Network (PECARN) at 
the Children's Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio- Grant Number 
U03MC222684.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: HRSA announces the award of a supplement of $50,000 for the 
PECARN cooperative agreement. The supplement will permit the Children's 
Hospital Medical Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, the cooperative agreement 
recipient to support its oversight of the operation of PECARN as the 
Chair for 2017-2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    Intended Recipient of the Award: Children's Hospital Medical 
Center, Cincinnati, Ohio.
    Amount of Non-Competitive Awards: $50,000.
    Period of Supplemental Funding: September 1, 2017, through August 
31, 2018.
    CFDA Number: 93.127.

    Authority: Public Health Service Act, Title XIX, Section 1910 
(42 U.S.C. 300w-9); as amended by the Emergency Medical Services for 
Children Reauthorization Act of 2014, P.L. 113-180.

    Justification: As stated in the funding opportunity announcement, 
the goal of the PECARN is to develop an efficient research network to 
conduct high quality research and publish evidence-based findings that 
will impact clinical practice and ensure standardized care in diverse 
health care settings that serve children, including urban, rural, and 
tribal settings. The objectives of this award are to:
    (1) Support a network infrastructure to conduct high priority, high 
impact EMSC research using rigorous study designs and methodologies 
that can be applied to multi-site Emergency Department and/or 
prehospital emergency settings;
    (2) Contribute to an organizational structure that ensures network 
efficiency, productivity, and fidelity of study implementation and 
includes the ability to: (a) Develop study projects; (b) Attain 
extramural funding; (c) Conduct multi-site clinical investigations; (d) 
Publish and disseminate results; and (e) Develop young investigators in 
the area of pediatric emergency medicine;
    (3) Facilitate translation of research results to EMSC practices; 
and
    (4) Foster collaboration among EMS personnel, nurses, 
practitioners, and researchers.
    Success of the PECARN requires the services of a Chair, who is 
elected on an annual basis by grantees. This annual supplement is 
necessary to support the Chair's responsibilities which are within the 
scope of the cooperative agreement program, but were not required to be 
budgeted for in the organization's application due to the unknown 
contingency of who would be elected as Chair on behalf of which 
organization. Dr. Richard Ruddy of Children's Hospital Medical Center, 
Cincinnati, Ohio, was elected Chair of the PECARN for 2016-2018. The 
proposed supplement is to supply funds to the Chair to support his 
oversight of the operation of PECARN including coordinating and running 
the Steering Committee meetings, appointing Subcommittee Chairpersons 
to be later approved by the Steering Committee; maintaining ongoing 
communications with principal investigators and keeping all of PECARN 
updated with new/ongoing activities; representing PECARN at national 
meetings; and serving as liaison to HRSA/Maternal and Child Health 
Bureau federal officials.
