Adverse Events Module

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

NCT ID: NCT01362205
Description: One subject randomized to the dexmedetomidine group did not receive study drug and so was excluded from the adverse event analysis. The total number of subjects included in the adverse event analysis in the dexmedetomidine decreased from 22 to 21.
Frequency Threshold: 5
Time Frame: The first 28 days of hospitalization after randomization.
Study: NCT01362205
Study Brief: Dexmedetomidine (Precedex®) for Severe Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome (AWS) and Alcohol Withdrawal Delirium (AWD)
Event Groups(If Any):

Title Description Deaths # Affected Deaths # At Risk Serious # Affected Serious # At Risk Other # Affected Other # At Risk View
Dexmedetomidine Dexmedetomidine titrated to achieve predefined goals on selected components of the MINDS score using the minimum amount of medication possible. Blinded study medication will be started at a rate determined by the MINDS score. The maximum infusion rate is 1.4 μg/kg per hour. Uncontrolled SAWS/D symptoms, will be treated with open label lorazepam according to the MINDS score algorithm. Persistent SAWS/D symptoms despite maximum infusion rate of study medication treatment limiting symptoms while receiving higher infusion rates of study medication, ancillary therapies will be administered according to the MINDS score algorithm, at the discretion of the treating physician.
