Adverse Events Module

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

NCT ID: NCT01286168
Description: All subjects underwent a mandatory follow-up visit approximately one week after surgery, at which time surgical sites are evaluated and appropriate study cultures obtained. Additional visits were made for clinical care; follow up phone calls were also made to the subjects.
Frequency Threshold: 0
Time Frame: Eligible subjects were recruited prospectively from the breast surgical practices between May 2011 and June 2013.
Study: NCT01286168
Study Brief: Trial of Drain Antisepsis After Tissue Expander Breast Reconstruction

Title Description Deaths # Affected Deaths # At Risk Serious # Affected Serious # At Risk Other # Affected Other # At Risk View
Antisepsis Side A chlorhexidine gluconate disk (BioPatch) covered by an occlusive adhesive dressing (Tegaderm) will be applied to the intervention drain sites and changed every three days. The drainage bulb will be irrigated with 10ml of 0.125% sodium hypochlorite (Dakin's solution) twice a day. Sodium hypochlorite (Dakin's Solution): 10 ml of 0.125% sodium hypochlorite (Dakin's solution) irrigation to the drainage bulb two times a day Chlorhexidine gluconate disk: Apply one chlorhexidine disk to the intervention drain site(s) and change every three days Occlusive Adhesive Dressing: A chlorhexidine gluconate disk (BioPatch) covered by an occlusive adhesive dressing (Tegaderm) will be applied to the intervention drain sites and changed every three days.

Control Side Standard drain care will be performed twice a day or three times if bulb is full and needs to be emptied. Standard drain care consists of stripping the tubing, emptying the drainage bulb, recording the volume of fluid, and cleaning the drain site with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol. The drain exit will be covered with a dry sterile gauze dressing and changed after each episode of drain care.
