Grant Description: Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) issued by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), and the Office of Research on Womens Health (ORWH) solicits grant applications from institutions/organizations willing to participate with the NICHD in an ongoing multi-center clinical program designed to study clinical and health aspects of pelvic floor disorders in women. Pelvic floor disorders for the purpose of this FOA include urinary incontinence, fecal incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and other sensory and emptying abnormalities of the lower urinary and gastrointestinal tracts. Clinical and health aspects of pelvic floor disorders include surgical and nonsurgical treatments, social and behavioral contributions, pharmacologic therapies, any outcomes from the broad array of treatments available, and prevention efforts, among others. Particular attention will be paid to develop innovative solutions to the challenging problems in women with pelvic floor disorders and to reduce the burden of pelvic floor disorders for women and their families. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Cooperative Clinical Research (U10) award mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, RFA-HD-10-024, that solicits applications under the the NIH Cooperative Research Project award mechanism (U01). Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The NICHD and ORWH intend to commit approximately $3.2 million in total costs [Direct plus Facilities and Administrative (F and A) costs] in fiscal year 2011 to fund 7-9 new and/or competing continuation grants for Clinical Sites in response to this FOA.
