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

| Technical Assistance (No ASR) | Technical Assistance (TA). Intervention: TA will be offered to the 4 teams randomized to the TA condition without automated surveillance reporting and will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit plus monthly technical calls independently AKI Prevention Toolkit: AKI Prevention Toolkit. Intervention: All sites will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit including 3 core interventions: 1. Standardized order sets; 2. IV and oral fluids; and 3. Reduced contrast volume. The interventions adhere to the KDIGO guidelines and add interventions developed and tested in our pilot intervention to implement AKI preventive strategies. Technical Assistance (TA): Technical Assistance (TA). Intervention: TA will be offered to the 8 teams randomized to the TA condition and will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit plus monthly technical calls independently. TA arms will include TA with and without automated surveillance reporting (ASR). | 2 | None | 213 | 830 | 0 | 830 | View |
| Virtual Learning Collaborative (No ASR) | Virtual Learning Collaborative (VLC): The VLC will be offered to 10 teams and will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit plus monthly virtual training calls with the other VLC sites. Each participating site will be supported to establish a multidisciplinary team charged with continuously improving AKI, which will include interventional cardiologists, cardiac catheterization lab manager and technicians, nursing representatives from the intensive care unit and/or holding areas, cardiology administration, nephrology, and representation from the quality improvement department (VA Clinical Application Coordinator \[CAC\] and Systems Redesign). AKI Prevention Toolkit: AKI Prevention Toolkit. Intervention: All sites will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit including 3 core interventions: 1. Standardized order sets; 2. IV and oral fluids; and 3. Reduced contrast volume. The interventions adhere to the KDIGO guidelines and add interventions developed and tested in our pilot intervention to implement AKI preventive strategies. | 3 | None | 355 | 1496 | 0 | 1496 | View |
| Technical Assistance With ASR | Technical Assistance (TA). Intervention: TA will be offered to the 4 teams randomized to the TA condition with automated surveillance reporting (ASR) and will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit plus monthly technical calls independently and monthly ASR dashboard. AKI Prevention Toolkit: AKI Prevention Toolkit. Intervention: All sites will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit including 3 core interventions: 1. Standardized order sets; 2. IV and oral fluids; and 3. Reduced contrast volume.

Technical Assistance (TA): Technical Assistance (TA). Intervention: TA will be offered to the 8 teams randomized to the TA condition and will receive the AKI Prevention Toolkit plus monthly technical calls independently. TA arms will include TA with and without automated surveillance reporting (ASR). Automated Surveillance Reporting (ASR): Automated Surveillance Reporting (ASR). Intervention: The ASR will be offered to 8 teams. In addition to either TA or VLC, ASR teams will receive automated monthly reports in the form of an dashboard focused on AKI outcome and preventative measures overtime. The ASR report will be customized to each team and each individual operator and linked to their national VA-CART registry. | 1 | None | 331 | 1073 | 0 | 1073 | View |
