Survey Field Methods for Expanded Biospecimen and Biomeasure Collection in NSHAP Wave 2

Abstract: Improved field methods included in-home collection, temperature control, establishment of a central survey biomeasure laboratory, and shipping, all of which were crucial for successful collection by the field interviewers and accurate laboratory assay of the biomeasures (92.1% average co-operation rate and 97.3% average assay success rate). Developed for home interviews, these biomeasures are readily applicable to other surveys.

“…Data from a wrist accelerometry substudy (n = 738) in Wave 2 of the National Social Life, Health, and Aging Project (NSHAP) were analyzed . An accelerometer (ActiWatch Spectrum, Philips Respironics, Aurora, IL) worn on the nondominant wrist continuously measured activity and sleep over 72 hours (not removed for water activities) .…”

“…Self‐rated physical and mental health (excellent, very good, good, fair, poor) were assessed. Systolic and diastolic blood pressure, nonfasting glycosylated hemoglobin (%), C‐reactive protein (CRP, mg/L), and body mass index (BMI, kg/m 2 ) were measured . Obesity was identified as BMI of 30 kg/m 2 or greater.…”
