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
| Title | Description | Deaths # Affected | Deaths # At Risk | Serious # Affected | Serious # At Risk | Other # Affected | Other # At Risk | View |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operative | Patients enrolled in the operative treatment group will undergo surgical intervention for their pelvic fracture. The surgeon will decide the best surgical technique as per standard of care for the patient's injury. The patient will mobilize as per the surgeon's instructions and x-rays will be taken at follow-up clinic appointments to determine if the injury is healing properly. If additional surgery is required or other complications arise, this will be recorded within the study follow-up forms. LC fracture surgical fixation | 0 | None | 0 | 47 | 3 | 47 | View |
| Non-operative | Patients enrolled in the non-operative treatment group will not undergo surgical intervention for their pelvic fracture. They will mobilize as per the surgeon's instructions according to standard of care of for this injury. X-rays will be taken at follow-up clinic appointments to determine if the injury is healing properly or if the pelvis has shifted and may warrant surgical intervention. If complications arise and/or surgery is required, crossover will be allowed and recorded within study follow-up forms. LC fracture non-operative management | 0 | None | 0 | 48 | 4 | 48 | View |
