In 2010, the United States Food and Drug Administration warned the public that inferior vena cava filters (IVCs), medical devices used to prevent blood clots from moving into the lungs, pose serious risks to persons the using the devices. Reports state that these filters could fracture, migrate, and cause organ perforation. As a result, the FDA suggested that these devices be removed as soon as patients’ risks of blood clots subsided.
