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: NCT00316004
Description: Serial blood sodium levels were drawn to monitor the effects of the hypertonic saline solutions; Serial head CT's (computed tomography) were done to monitor for increased intracranial hemorrhage; and incidents of seizures in the first 24 hours.
Frequency Threshold: 5
Time Frame: The time frame was from May 2006 through May 2009, which was 3 years
Study: NCT00316004
Study Brief: Hypertonic Resuscitation Following Severe Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI)
