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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SCS + OMM | Spinal Cord Stimulation (SCS) using multicolumn surgical lead + Optimal Medical Management (OMM): In addition to the OMM described under the OMM group, subjects underwent an SCS screening test and, if successful, received an INS implant. Any SCS group subject not implanted continued to be treated with OMM and were followed as part of the SCS group. | 0 | None | 18 | 110 | 4 | 110 | View |
| OMM Alone | Optimal Medical Management (OMM) alone: Pain treatment was evaluated, and medical management of subjects' pain was optimized. The investigator and subject determined an individual OMM treatment plan, which should include non-investigational pharmacologic agents (e.g., tricyclic antidepressants, opioid analgesics or tramadol, antiepileptics, or lidocaine) and/or interventional therapies (e.g., therapeutic injections, radiofrequency, acupuncture, and physical therapy) as appropriate. Excluded from OMM is intrathecal drug delivery (IDD), peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS; not an approved indication in the USA), back surgery at the location related to the subject's original back pain complaint and experimental therapies. Data regarding pain treatments implemented during the study were collected to reveal how medical management was optimized. | 0 | None | 7 | 108 | 11 | 108 | View |
