What is the B. Braun VenaTech LGM IVC Filter?
The VenaTech LGM inferior vena cava filter was designed as a permanent IVC filter to prevent clot migration and pulmonary embolism. This filter has been discontinued; however, thousands of patients remain implanted with the potentially dangerous device.
The Vena Tech LGM filter was first developed and released in France by LG Medical; the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the filter in 1989.
PRESERVE IVC Filter Study
The PRESERVE clinical trial began enrolling patients in December 2015, and includes approximately 2,100 IVC filter patients across the United States — including about 300 implanted with the B. Braun VenaTech IVC filter. Researchers in the ongoing study will track patient outcomes to determine the safety and effectiveness of many types of IVC filters.
