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

| Telemonitoring Assisted Self-care | Telemonitoring assisted self-care group was given a home-care package including a weight scale, a blood pressure meter, a mobile phone and self-care instructions. A pre-installed software application in the mobile phone supported uploading of measurements and self-assessment of symptoms. The patients were advised to carry out and report the measurements together with the self-assessment once a week. Telemonitoring assisted self-care: The responsible nurse followed patients' status and the data once a week or more frequently if needed. Based on the reported measurements, the nurse could invite the patient for a control visit. In case a patient did not make self-measurements as planned , the nurse contacted the patient and reminded him/ her to continue with monitoring. | None | None | 0 | 46 | 0 | 46 | View |
