Abstract: Since 2014, state and local health departments, in consultation with clinicians, have submitted information about suspect cases to CDC. However, CDC has received feedback from the state and local health departments and clinicians about the feasibility of completing the requested information on the currently approved Acute Flaccid Myelitis Patient Summary Form. In order to decrease the overall burden to complete the form, CDC has deleted the clinical sections on the form and in turn, requests the respondents supplement that clinical information with clinical notes, MRI reports, and images.
