Nachawati Law GroupNachawati Law GroupNachawati Law GroupDid you have an Inferior Vena Cava (IVC) filter inserted to prevent pulmonary embolism? Did the IVC filter break apart or fracture, causing significant damage? Did you suffer perforation of the heart, lungs, or vena cava, internal bleeding, cardiac tamponade, hematoma, pulmonary embolism, infection, or severe chest pain? If you or a loved one received any of these injuries after receiving an IVC filter, you might be entitled to monetary compensation.
Reports first surfaced in 2005 that the radial arms and struts of medical equipment manufacturer Bard's Recovery IVC filter had broken off inside patients' bodies. Since then, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) received around 1,000 adverse reports involving the filters, primarily regarding the filters fragmenting and embolizing inside the body. Due to these reports, and extensive research on the filters, the FDA urged physicians to consider the risks before recommending the IVC filter be installed in patients who are ineligible for anticoagulation therapy. The FDA also recommends that the filters be removed as soon as the risk of pulmonary embolism has passed.
