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

| Active Ultrasound Device | Patients (n=55) receive treatment from the Sam Ultrasonic Diathermy Device for 4 hours every day for 6 weeks. The active device emits continuous ultrasound at 3 megahertz (MHz) frequency and 0.132 watts/cm2 intensity. Sam Ultrasonic Diathermy Device: Patients apply the Sam Ultrasonic Diathermy Device daily for 4 hours of continuous therapeutic ultrasound at 3 megahertz (MHz) frequency and 0.132 Watts/cm2. | 0 | None | 0 | 55 | 0 | 55 | View |
| Placebo Ultrasound Device | Patients (n=35) wear the Sam Ultrasonic Diathermy Device for 4 hours every day for 6 weeks. The placebo device appears and operates identically to the active device except that it does not emit ultrasound. Sam Ultrasonic Diathermy Device: Patients apply the Sam Ultrasonic Diathermy Device daily for 4 hours of continuous therapeutic ultrasound at 3 megahertz (MHz) frequency and 0.132 Watts/cm2. | 0 | None | 0 | 35 | 0 | 35 | View |
