Cancer induces a hypercoaguable state and renders patients susceptible to pulmonary embolism (PE). The role of potentially retrievable IVC filters (prIVCf) in this group of patients has not been elucidated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the utilization of prIVCf in cancer patients. We hypothesize that prIVCf have a limited role in cancer patients with metastatic disease at presentation because...
Potentially retrievable design technology has significantly increased the utilization of IVC filters in the US. In this study, we aimed to compare the ease of retrievability of two potentially retrievable IVC filter (pfIVCF) devices. We hypothesize that the retrievability for the Celect (Cook Inc, Bloomington, IN) and Option (Rex Medical, Conshohocken, PA) devices is equivalent.In this prospective,...
Patients at significantly increased risk for venous thromboembolism (VTE) undergoing total joint arthroplasty are a clinical challenge, given the paradoxical indication and contraindication to prophylactic anticoagulation. We hypothesize that the use of potentially retrievable IVC filters (prIVCF) in this high-risk patient population is safe and effective in preventing pulmonary embolism (PE) and...
