Design-of-Experiments Approach to Improving Inferior Vena Cava Filter Retrieval Rates

Design-of-Experiments Approach to Improving Inferior Vena Cava Filter Retrieval Rates

Abstract Purpose The association of retrievable inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) with adverse events has led to increased interest in prompt retrieval, particularly in younger patients given the progressive nature of these complications over time. This study takes a design-of-experiments (DOE) app...

Zusammenfassung:Abstract Purpose The association of retrievable inferior vena cava filters (IVCFs) with adverse events has led to increased interest in prompt retrieval, particularly in younger patients given the progressive nature of these complications over time. This study takes a design-of-experiments (DOE) approach to investigate methods to best improve filter retrieval rates, with a particular focus on younger (
