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

Event Groups
| Title | Description | Deaths # Affected | Deaths # At Risk | Serious # Affected | Serious # At Risk | Other # Affected | Other # At Risk | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Midazolam | Patients received either etomidate or midazolam. | None | None | 0 | 59 | 0 | 59 | View |
| Etomidate | Patients received either etomidate (0.3 mg/kg) or midazolam (0.1 mg/kg) intravenously before rapid sequence intubation in a double-blind fashion. The dose of each medication was chosen according to current physician practice and previous study findings. Identical study vials containing either etomidate or midazolam, in volume-equivalent concentrations, were prepared by our pharmacy department and stored in kits that also contained a variety of commonly used paralytic agents. Kits were labeled with numbers that reflected the assignment generated by a randomization sequence generator and placed in our automated medication dispensing cabinet (Omnicell, Inc., Mountain View, CA). The remainder of the patients' care, both in the ED and in the ICU, was directed according to the treating physician. | None | None | 0 | 61 | 0 | 61 | View |
