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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Treatment CPAP | Participants will receive continuous positive airway pressure for a 2 month period. The optimal treatment pressure will be identified during a titration study prior to trial enrollment. Adherence will be tracked while the participant wears the device. Continuous Positive Airway Pressure (CPAP): Participants will use the higher pressure CPAP, as determined by an in-laboratory attended titration study, every night for 12 weeks. | 0 | None | 3 | 76 | 32 | 76 | View |
| SHAM CPAP | Participants will receive sham continuous positive airway pressure for a 2 month period. Sham CPAP involves wearing a device that appears similar to a standard CPAP device, but administers a negligible pressure. Adherence will be tracked while the participant wears the device. Sham CPAP: Participants will use the lower pressure CPAP every night for 8 weeks. | 0 | None | 3 | 77 | 27 | 77 | View |
