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

| Matched Control Group | This study had a matched cohort design. Treatment subjects were matched with 25 historical control patients who received similar cold stored ECD grafts. Subjects were matched on known covariates including donor age, donation after cardiac death, steatosis, both warm and cold ischemia times, recipient age, MELD score and disease etiology. Additional analyses were performed on historical control blood and/or tissue samples previously collected and stored in the study's sample repository. | 0 | None | 11 | 25 | 0 | 25 | View |
| Experimental: Hypothermic Machine Perfusion Group Group | 24 subjects were treated with the Medtronic Portable Bypass System (PBSĀ®) with Model 550 Bioconsole, and the BioCalĀ® blood temperature control module was used for machine perfusion of liver grafts. These products are commercially available and are used in clinical practice for cardiopulmonary bypass and extracorporeal membrane oxygenation. The Medtronic system utilizes an atraumatic centrifugal pump that can deliver the flow rates approximating portal venous flow in human livers, and it has modules for online membrane oxygenation, and electronic flow measurement. | 6 | None | 6 | 24 | 0 | 24 | View |
