The SAFTEE is a technique for the systematic assessment of side effects in clinical trials developed by National Institute of Mental Health (Levine & Schooler, 1986). It is a questionnaire that rates the current severity of a wide range of somatic, behavioral and affective symptoms in general and specific inquiry formats. It is designed to report adverse health events, regardless of whether or not they are suspected to be drug related, in order to reduce the under-reporting of unanticipated events compared with "known or expected" events.
Because of a lapse in government funding, the information on this website may not be up to date, transactions submitted via the website may not be processed, and the agency may not be able to respond to inquiries until appropriations are enacted. The NIH Clinical Center (the research hospital of NIH) is open. For more details about its operating status, please visit cc.nih.gov. Updates regarding government operating status and resumption of normal operations can be found at opm.gov. |
