Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) filters have become an important part of
deep venous thrombosis and pulmonary embolism treatment and
prevention. With the advent of retrievable filters a new era of IVC
instrumentation has been initiated. This book will begin to review
the history of IVC filtration, indications for permanent and
temporary filter use and filter use in special populations such as
the pregnant patient or those with upper extremity venous
thrombosis. The authors also review the technical aspects of filter
placement and retrieval and discuss immediate and long-term
complications from IVC filters. The book will also continue to
discuss how acute spinal cord injury provides risks for developing
deep vein thrombosis; and discuss the efficacy and safety of novel
oral anticoagulants for venous thromboembolisms.
