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

| Patients Only on Pulsed Xenon Ultraviolet Light (PX-UV) Device Emitting Germicidal UV Units | Pulsed xenon ultraviolet light (PX-UV) Device was used to disinfect rooms following post-discharge terminal cleaning: 2 Detroit Medical Center (DMC) acute-care hospitals were proposed for this project, Sinai-Grace Hospital (SGH) with 383 beds and Detroit Receiving Hospital (DRH) with 248; 8 hospital units in SGH and 8 hospital units in DRH, including 2 medical intensive care units (ICUs), 2 surgical ICUs and 12 non-ICU medical-surgical wards. Devices were deployed on these study units with the sham and intervention devices split evenly within SGH and DRH. Within each study site, the types of devices (PX-UV vs sham) were assigned randomly to the units in Phase 1 and then switched in Phase 2. | 0 | None | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | View |
| Patients Cared for on Only Sham Device - Non Emitting Germicidal UV Units | Sham Device was run in rooms following post-discharge terminal cleaning. No Germicidal UV was emitted. 2 Detroit Medical Center (DMC) acute-care hospitals were proposed for this project, Sinai-Grace Hospital (SGH) with 383 beds and Detroit Receiving Hospital (DRH) with 248; 8 hospital units in SGH and 8 hospital units in DRH, including 2 medical intensive care units (ICUs), 2 surgical ICUs and 12 non-ICU medical-surgical wards. | 0 | None | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | View |
| Patients Cared for on Both PX-UV and Sham Units | Despite the original study design where crossover occurred at the unit level, some patients were cared for on both a PX-UV unit as well as a Sham unit. The degree to which this occurred was unexpected, yet unavoidable. | 0 | None | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | View |
