Adverse Events Module
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

| STEPS Intervention Group | Participants will receive a wearable physical activity monitor and will be asked to report their daily step count in 3 different ways (2 weeks each of SMS text messages, Interactive Voice Response calls (IVR), automatic upload) during the 6-week study period. STEPS Intervention: Participants in the STEPS (Seniors Tracking Exercise for Pain Self-management) intervention will receive a commercially-available, wearable physical activity monitor. They will be asked to wear this monitor during waking hours for 6 weeks, reporting their daily step count every evening. The way in which participants report steps will change every 2 weeks. For the first 4 weeks of the study, participants will report via Interactive Voice Response (IVR) calls for 2 weeks and SMS text messages for 2 weeks. For the final two week period, research staff will help participants to set up the monitor to automatically send daily step counts to STEPS project staff. This can be done through a smartphone, tablet, or computer. | 0 | None | 1 | 28 | 0 | 28 | View |
