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: NCT02633735
Description: The number analyzed are the sum of participants who completed the pre-implementation and implementation phase in both study arms. Negative appendicitis and appendiceal perforation were monitored for the subset of participants that had a surgical procedure following exposure to the clinical decision support intervention.
Frequency Threshold: 5
Time Frame: Within 7 days of index ED visit.
Study: NCT02633735

Appy CDS Intervention The Appy-cds intervention is a point of care clinical decision support system designed to identify pediatric patients at risk for appendicitis using EHR and supplemental data. The Appy-cds has multiple components, 1) presents risk prediction/stratification to provider, 2) provides recommendations consistent with standardized appendicitis care, 3) alerts for unnecessary exposure to ionizing radiation via a best practice alert. The intervention is administered to providers in this arm. Post Appy Clinical Decision Support: The Appy CDS is a point of care clinical decision support system that provides the provider with 1) risk for appendicitis based on EHR data, 2) recommendations on actions to take based on risk, 3) advises on imaging use. 0 None 96 3161 222 3161 View
