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

| A New Operation (Selected Pilot Study) | Two circular incisions were performed in the left atrial wall between the pulmonary veins and the mitral annulus. with those two incisions, circumferential resection of a strip for the left atrial was obtained. The middle of pulmonary vein island was longitudinal plicated and the left appendage was ligated. Finally,the plicated pulmonary island was directly anastomosed to the lest side free wall, inferior wall, roof, the posterior walls of both superior and inferior vein cavae, and intra-atrial septum. Left atrial geometric volume reduction, pulmonary veins island isolation and left appendage ligation (Selected): Two circular incisions were performed in the left atrial wall between the pulmonary veins and the mitral annulus. with those two incisions, circumferential resection of a strip for the left atrial was obtained. The middle of pulmonary vein island was longitudinal plicated and the left appendage was ligated. Finally,the plicated pulmonary island was directly anastomosed to the lest side free wall, inferior wall, roof, the posterior walls of both superior and inferior vein cavae, and intra-atrial septum. | 0 | None | 1 | 20 | 0 | 20 | View |
