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

| As Assigned: Pre-release MMT + Referral Post Release + Payment | Participants enrolled in Group 1 will initiate methadone opiate replacement therapy about 1 month prior to release from incarceration. They will then proceed with a methadone program of choice upon release and receive short-term payment to cover treatment costs. Fatal overdose deaths are calculated using all participants assigned to Arm 1. Other adverse events are calculated using self reported data from 12 month interviews. | None | None | 0 | 29 | 10 | 26 | View |
| As Assigned: MMT Referral Post Release + Payment | Participants enrolled in Group 2 will be referred to a methadone program of choice upon release from incarceration with provision of short-term payment of treatment costs. Fatal overdose deaths are calculated using all participants assigned to Arm 2. Other adverse events are calculated using self reported data from 12 month interviews. | None | None | 2 | 28 | 8 | 20 | View |
| As Assigned: MMT Referral Post Release | Participants enrolled in Group 3 will be referred to a program of their choice upon release from incarceration without receiving financial assistance. Fatal overdose deaths are calculated using all participants assigned to Arm 3. Other adverse events are calculated using self reported data from 12 month interviews. | None | None | 1 | 30 | 8 | 23 | View |
