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
| Title | Description | Deaths # Affected | Deaths # At Risk | Serious # Affected | Serious # At Risk | Other # Affected | Other # At Risk | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| DuraGen (Sutureless) | Duragen - the Duragen patch is applied over the dural defect during Chiari decompression surgery. The Duragen represents sutureless technique of posterior fossa duraplasty. Rest of the treatment is as usual. Duraplasty with Duragen: Posterior cranial fossa repair and enlargement with application of dural patch (Duragen) | None | None | 2 | 16 | 1 | 16 | View |
| DuraGuard (Suturable) | Duraguard - the Duraguard patch is applied over the dural defect during Chiari decompression surgery and sutured to the dural edge. This represents suturable technique that theoretically provides better (water-tight) dural closure.
