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

| Prone Positioning for a Total of 6 Hours Daily by Study Protocol | Patients will be positioned prone for 3 hours then placed supine for 3 hours then prone again for 3 additional hours. The change in position from prone to supine and back is to more reliably document possible changes in ventilation, oxygenation, other vital signs and respiratory support required. Prone positioning for a total of 6 hours daily: Prone positioning for 6 hours daily | 0 | None | 0 | 1 | 0 | 1 | View |
| Usual Positioning | Patients in the newborn intensive care unit are physically handled usually every 3-4 hours. Those study participants who are randomly assigned to "usual position" may rest in a variety of positions in any order based on nursing or perceived patient preference. Positions may include supine, right lateral, left lateral, and prone as well. | 0 | None | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | View |
