  • Convened an international panel of CONSORT Group members, journal editors, and scientists in May 2003 in Montebello, Canada.
  • Evaluated current deficits in adverse event reporting and expanded the standard 22-item CONSORT checklist to address safety evaluation.
  • Formulated 10 new harms-related recommendations integrated into the standard CONSORT framework.
  • Provided explanatory text and practical examples to guide researchers in properly describing adverse events, safety analyses, and trial participant withdrawals.
