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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Patient Liaison Intervention | The participants randomized to the intervention group will be exposed to the patient liaison in receiving their colposcopy report results and recommendations. Rather than receive results from their referring physician, an experienced colposcopy nurse will contact participants once the colposcopists complete the final colposcopy report. Patient Liaison: An experienced colposcopy nurse will contact participants once the colposcopists complete the final colposcopy report. The colposcopy report will inform the referring provider that these patients will be informed of the results. The colposcopy nurse will provide an explanation of the colposcopy results and subsequent follow-up or treatment recommendations, be available to answer patient questions (within her scope), offer educational or support resources to patients. She will forward any patient questions beyond her scope to the patient's colposcopist. | 0 | None | 0 | 145 | 0 | 145 | View |
| Control | The control group will receive the standard of care for colposcopy results reporting via their referring physician. Following their colposcopy visit, control patients are given a slip of paper reminding them to call their family/referring physician for their colposcopy results in three weeks if they have not yet been contacted. Upon receipt of the final pathology, colposcopy reports are prepared by the colposcopists and forwarded to family/referring physicians typically within 2-3 weeks of the visit. Patients then receive the results of their colposcopy report from their family/referring physician by whatever method of communication preferred by that provider. | 0 | None | 0 | 149 | 0 | 149 | View |
