Patient clinical data will be used in a clinical registry. Before a patient is to undergo their initial procedure for filter placement/retrieval, we will approach them for consent to participate in the study. If patients consent, we will follow clinical data from the procedure, and perform prospective follow-up over time to track clinical response and effects of the placement or removal procedure. Various real-world protocols involving advanced filter removal (including laser-assisted filter removal) will be investigated by conducting registry-based clinical trials. Participants will only be enrolled if they will be undergoing an IVC (Inferior Vena Cava) filter placement/retrieval procedure.
