DESCRIPTION: (Adapted from Applicant's Description): Research Triangle Institute (RTI) proposes to serve as the Data Coordinating Center (D.C.) for the NIH-DC Initiative to Reduce Infant Mortality in Minority Populations, Phase II. As the D.C. for Phase I, RTI has altered the staff mix and emphasis of work to meet the changing demands of this multifaceted project. RTI's matrix management structure provides considerable flexibility in allocating and changing resources with the status of protocols. RTI recognizes ongoing and new responsibilities that must be undertaken by the D.C. in Phase II to continue a most successful operation. These include: (1) Phase I activities; (2) additional support in logistic management; (3) involvement in epidemiological and intervention aspects of protocols in addition to statistical, data capture and data management components; (4) "reining in of site coordinators in managing data collection outside of the traditional clinic and hospital settings; and (5) development of plans for allocating the limited population in DC among the competing protocols before implementation. The senior staff proposed for this D.C. includes the current leaders of the D.C. for Phase I in their existing roles: Dr. Vijaya Rao (PI); Ms. Jutta Thornberry (Co-PI, data collection); Dr. Nabil El-Khorazaty (Co-PI, statistics); and Ms. Margo Brinkley (computer systems). Expertise in epidemiology and intervention methodology for the D.C. will be provided, respectively, by Dr. Tim Wilcosky, an RTI senior epidemiologist, and Mr. David Austin, an RTI research community analyst. Dr. Margaret McCann, a consulting epidemiologist, will bring additional expertise in maternal and child health research. Other proposed staff include a logistic support administrator and a secretary. Additional personnel will be assigned to the D.C. as needs arise. RTI has a Rockville, MD, office near NICHD. RTI will take a leadership role in the areas of statistical and epidemiological design and analysis, intervention methodology, data capture methods, data management and processing, quality control, and training of the data collection management personnel and data collectors. Methods applied in these areas will be the state-of-the art. The investigators will develop and maintain a website that is consistent with the Initiative's environment.

描述：（改编自申请人的描述）：研究三角 研究所（RTI）提议充当数据协调中心（D.C.） NIH-DC 降低少数民族婴儿死亡率的倡议， 第二阶段。 作为第一阶段的华盛顿特区，RTI 改变了人员结构并 工作重点是满足这个多方面项目不断变化的需求。 RTI 的矩阵管理结构提供了相当大的灵活性 根据协议状态分配和更改资源。 逆转录酶抑制剂 认识到必须承担的持续的和新的责任 华盛顿特区第二阶段继续最成功的运营。 这些包括： (1) 第一阶段活动； （2）物流管理方面的额外支持； (3) 参与协议的流行病学和干预方面 除了统计、数据采集和数据管理组件之外； (4) “控制现场协调员管理外部数据收集 传统诊所和医院环境； (5) 制定计划 在之前的竞争协议中分配 DC 的有限人口 执行。 为该特区提议的高级职员包括 现任华盛顿特区第一阶段领导人：Vijaya 博士 饶（PI）； Jutta Thornberry 女士（联合首席研究员，数据收集）；纳比尔博士 El-Khorazaty（联合首席研究员，统计）；和 Margo Brinkley 女士（计算机系统）。 华盛顿特区流行病学和干预方法方面的专业知识将 分别由 RTI 高级流行病学家 Tim Wilcosky 博士提供， David Austin 先生是 RTI 研究社区分析师。 玛格丽特博士 流行病学咨询专家麦肯将带来更多专业知识 妇幼健康研究。 其他拟议的工作人员包括后勤人员 支持管理员和秘书。 额外人员将 根据需要分配给华盛顿特区。 RTI 在马里兰州罗克维尔附近设有办事处 NICHD。 RTI 将在统计和统计领域发挥领导作用 流行病学设计与分析、干预方法、数据采集 方法、数据管理和处理、质量控制以及培训 数据采集​​管理人员和数据采集人员。 方法 在这些领域的应用将是最先进的。 调查人员将 开发和维护一个与该倡议一致的网站 环境。
