For researchers submitting trial data to ClinicalTrials.gov, the Adverse Events module is one of four mandatory results sections. It requires reporting in three primary categories: All-Cause Mortality: A table tracking all deaths that occurred during the study, regardless of cause. Serious Adverse Events (SAEs): A tabular summary of events resulting in death, life-threatening conditions, hospitalization, or significant disability. Other Adverse Events: A table for non-serious events that exceed a specific frequency threshold, such as 5% within any study arm.
Adverse Events Module path is as follows:
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Event Groups
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Serious Events
Study -> Results Section -> Adverse Events Module -> Other Events

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Morphine | Initial dose is 0.4mg/kg/day, divided every 3-4 hours, given PO with feeds. Drug is required until symptoms of withdrawal no longer cause the infant feeding, behavior, or elimination problems, up to 3 months. Morphine: Start at 0.4mg/kg/day (divided every 3-4 hours, given with feeds. Dose may be increased 25% of initial dose until symptoms are stable, up to 1 mg/kg/day. Once stable for 72 hrs, weaning may begin (decrease 10% of max dose, every other day). When total dose is \<0.1mg/kg/day, may discontinue. | 0 | None | 0 | 15 | 0 | 15 | View |
| Clonidine | Dose is started at 5 mcg/kg/day, given PO with feeds, divided every 3-4 hours. Drug is required until symptoms of withdrawal no longer cause the infant feeding, behavior, or elimination problems, up to 3 months. Clonidine: Initial dose is 5 mcg/kg/day (divided every 3-4 hrs, given with feeds). Will increase 25% of initial dose every 12-24 hrs until stable, up to 12 mcg/kg/day. Dose is unchanged for 72 hours once stable, then may decrease by 10% every other day. If re-escalation is required, the previous dose may be used with 72 hours for stabilizing. | 0 | None | 0 | 16 | 0 | 16 | View |
