Event Group
Event Groups are part of the Adverse Events Module within the Results Section. They provide a way to organize and summarize adverse event data by grouping related events together.
Each Event Group typically represents a category or class of adverse events and includes statistical information such as the number of participants affected and at risk for different event types: deaths, serious events, and other events.
Event Group path is as follows:

Title:
Simvastatin
Description:
Subjects randomized to this arm will receive statin therapy (simvastatin 40 mg) two days before surgery -- allowing three doses of simvastatin before incision -- and these will be continued until patients are either discharged from the hospital or have completed a 3-day postoperative course (6 days of simvastatin therapy), whichever occurs earlier. If patients are unable to take oral medications, the enteral route via nasogastric tube (at our institution, nasogastric tubes are routinely placed for both lumbar and thoracic instrumentation) will be used to deliver either placebo or the statin, as no parenteral form of this drug is currently available.
