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

| Lidocaine Gel | This group will be those randomized to receiving the intervention with 2% lidocaine gel. 2% lidocaine gel: Participants, after informed consent, will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the inert gel group or the intervention group. In the intervention group, after tenaculum placement, a Q-tip soaked in approximately 1mL of 2% lidocaine gel will be placed in the cervix up to the level of the internal cervical os. The Q-tip will be held there for 1 minute and then be removed. We will repeat the same procedure in the control group with an inert gel similar in appearance, color and consistency to the lidocaine gel. Both the patient and the provider will be blinded to which gel was received. The research assistant will place the gel from its labeled tube into the unlabeled sterile tube in another room. | None | None | 0 | 100 | 17 | 100 | View |
| Placebo Gel (Surgilube) | This group will be randomized to having the intervention with the placebo surgilube gel. 2% lidocaine gel: Participants, after informed consent, will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to the inert gel group or the intervention group. In the intervention group, after tenaculum placement, a Q-tip soaked in approximately 1mL of 2% lidocaine gel will be placed in the cervix up to the level of the internal cervical os. The Q-tip will be held there for 1 minute and then be removed. We will repeat the same procedure in the control group with an inert gel similar in appearance, color and consistency to the lidocaine gel. Both the patient and the provider will be blinded to which gel was received. The research assistant will place the gel from its labeled tube into the unlabeled sterile tube in another room. | None | None | 0 | 100 | 16 | 100 | View |
