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

| Sodium Bicarbonate | At the start of the surgery, the patient will receive NaHCO3 as a continuous infusion of D5% 1/3NS + 100 meq/L NaHCO3 + 20 meq/L KCl at maintenance IVF (solution contains \~154 meq of sodium which is equivalent to normal saline). The NaHCO3 infusion will continue for the first 24 hours after the discontinuation of CPB. After 24 hours of receiving the NaHCO3 infusion, the IVF administered to the patient will be the standard solutions used in the PICU at CCMC. Sodium Bicarbonate | 0 | None | 0 | 26 | 0 | 26 | View |
| Sodium Chloride | At the start of surgery, patients in the control arm will receive D5% Normal Saline + 20 meq/L KCl at maintenance IVF. After 24 hours, standard IVF, not containing NaHCO3 or Na acetate will be administered for the duration of the PICU stay as required, determined by the clinicians primarily caring for the patient postoperatively.
