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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sham Injection | Subjects randomized into this group will receive, under sterile conditions, a sham injection of lidocaine 1% (10 mg/ml) 1-2 ml. Sterile preparation of the affected knee (treatment site) and the sham injection procedure will take place after sterile preparation into subcutaneous tissue without involving treatment to the intra-articular joint. The sham procedure will be performed by the unblinded treating physician ONLY. This procedure will include an 22-25 gauge needle stick through the skin into the subcutaneous tissue without violating the joint capsule or performing arthrocentesis.

| Synvisc-One Injection | Subjects randomized into the Synvisc-One group will receive a single 6 mL intra-articular injection of Synvisc-One under sterile conditions. The unblinded treating physician will prepare the treatment site according to his/her standard practice guidelines (i.e. after cutaneous numbing with a vasocoolant spray and / or local lidocaine injection), an 18 gauge needle will be advanced into one of three compartments of the knee using the injectors' technique of choice. Subjects will be monitored for a minimum 5 minutes post injection to evaluate for adverse events. Synvisc-One Injection | 0 | None | 1 | 22 | 2 | 22 | View |
