This is an observational study, meaning researchers will collect information from your medical records if you are already undergoing a procedure to have an IVC (Inferior Vena Cava) filter placed or removed at Stanford. An IVC filter is a small device placed in a large vein to catch blood clots. The study aims to track your progress and how you respond to the IVC filter placement or removal over time. Researchers will review your chart and clinical data. There is no specific drug being tested. To join, you must be an adult (18 years or older) and already scheduled for an IVC filter placement or removal procedure. The study plans to enroll up to 5000 participants, but the current recruitment status is unclear.
