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
| Title | Description | Deaths # Affected | Deaths # At Risk | Serious # Affected | Serious # At Risk | Other # Affected | Other # At Risk | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Active | Subjects will be given an Alpha-Stim active device for daily treatment. The electrodes attached to the device will be active. The device frequency is preset to 0.5 Hz and 100 microampere and treatment is one hour daily. The subjects will be instructed that the device is set to a low level so that the current is not detectable but should still be effective. The current will not be detectable in both active and sham devices in order for adequate blinding to occur. Alpha-Stim Active: The study device is a safe, commercially available take-home cranial electrotherapy stimulation device that applies an electrical current to a subject's head to treat anxiety, depression or insomnia | 0 | None | 0 | 13 | 2 | 13 | View |
| Inactive | Subjects will be given an Alpha-Stim inactive device for daily treatment. The electrodes attached to the device will be inactive. The device will not transmit anything when turned on because the electrodes are inactive. The frequency on the device will state 0.5 Hz and 100 microampere but it will not actually emit anything. Subjects in this group will receive "treatment" one hour daily. The subjects will be instructed that the device is set to a low level so that the current is not detectable but should still be effective. The current will not be detectable in both active and sham devices in order for adequate blinding to occur. Alpha-Stim Inactive: The study device given to the inactive group will be identical to the active except the electrodes attached to the device will be inactive. The device will not transmit anything when turned on because the electrodes are inactive. | 0 | None | 0 | 11 | 6 | 11 | View |
