Adverse Events Module
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

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Direct Patient Engagement | For clinics in the direct patient engagement (DPE) arm, patients will be identified by reviewing clinic records to create an "active" patient list (i.e., those who have had a visit in the past year). We will contact patients by postal mail and email to provide a link to the online risk screening tool. The patient outreach is not tied to a specific visit and the online screening can be completed at any time. Patients identified as high risk will be offered genetic testing for a panel of hereditary cancers. | 0 | None | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | View |
| Point of Care | For clinics in the point of care (POC) arm, patients will be approached at the time they come in to the clinic for a routine visit with their primary care provider. We will screen patients for familial cancer risk using electronic tablets in the waiting room or, in the case of a telehealth visit, through telephone contact before the visit. Patients identified as high risk will be offered genetic testing for a panel of hereditary cancers. | 0 | None | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | View |
