AbstractInferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) remain an indispensable part of an interventionalist's toolbox. Increased recognition of filter-related complications, largely from off-label use and casual approach to filter retrieval, has led to tremendous uncertainty surrounding their use. More stringent regulations on their use and development of newer and safer anticoagulants are gradually changing their role in the management of venous thromboembolism. Herein, the authors review the current role of IVCFs, indications for their use and retrieval, as well as filter-related complications.

AbstractVenous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant contributor to morbidity and mortality among patients with severe trauma. Historically, prophylactic inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) were used in high-risk trauma patients with suspected risk factors for VTE, including prolonged immobilization, and concurrent contraindication to anticoagulation. Mounting data regarding the efficacy of IVCF in this cohort, as well as concerns regarding morbidity of an in situ IVCF, have challenged this practice paradigm. In this review, we discuss the comanagement of VTE and trauma, including anticoagulation and the use of IVCF.
