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

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Initial Sham | This group will receive sham stimulation, initially. Participants will be randomized between the two arms of the crossover sessions (initial tVNS vs. initial Sham). Behavioral portions of the testing will then be carried out twice, with at least 72 hours between sessions (to avoid carryover effects). Transcutaneous vagal nerve stimulation: Non-invasive stimulation provided by transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation device at 20Hz, 100 μs pulse width. Sham stimulation: Sham stimulation will be performed using electrodes placed on earlobe. | 0 | None | 0 | 59 | 0 | 59 | View |
