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

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Continuous Infusion | Patients will receive a continuous infusion of Ropivacaine 0.2% (6 mL/hr, 4 mL patient controlled bolus with 30-minute lockout). Continuous Infusion: A continuous infusion of ropivacaine 0.2% (6 mL/hr, 4 mL patient controlled bolus with 30-minute lockout) will be initiated in the recovery room. | 0 | None | 0 | 35 | 0 | 35 | View |
| Automated Boluses | Patients will receive intermittent boluses of Ropivacaine 0.2% (8 mL automated bolus every 120 minutes, 4 mL patient controlled bolus with 30-minute lockout). Automated Intermittent Boluses: Administration of automated intermittent boluses of ropivacaine 0.2% (8 mL every 2 hr with 4 mL patient controlled bolus with 30-minute lockout) will be initiated in the recovery room, but with a 5-hour delay for the first bolus (can be overridden by patients if they would like to initiate their perineural infusion earlier than 5 hours). | 0 | None | 0 | 35 | 0 | 35 | View |
