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

| Sham tDCS | Sham transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) is ramped up and ramped down providing the sensation of tDCS without delivering the full amount of tDCS. Delivery of sham stimulation using Neuro-Conn Direct Current (DC) Stimulator Plus | 0 | None | 0 | 6 | 0 | 6 | View |
| Active Anodal tDCS | Active transcranial direct current stimulation using anodal stimulation over the area of interest. Delivery of transcranial direct current stimulation for 30 minutes. | 0 | None | 0 | 7 | 0 | 7 | View |
