Brief summary

This study is designed to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the RexMedical Option\* Vena Cava Filter in the treatment of patients who are at increased risk for Pulmonary Embolism and require caval interruption.

Interventions

DEVICEIntravascular Filter Device

Vena cava filter which is implanted into the inferior vena cava of patients to prevent recurrent pulmonary embolism. The filter can be utilized as a permanent or retrievable device.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Percentage of Participants With Clinical Successup to 180 daysPlacement Technical Success without subsequent pulmonary embolism, significant filter migration, symptomatic caval thrombosis or other complication requiring filter removal or invasive intervention to address condition.
Percentage of Participants With Retrieval Clinical Successupto 175 daysIntact filter retrieval via percutaneous techniques from the vasculature without associated injury or damage to the vena cava requiring intervention.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Placement Technical SuccessImmediately post placement procedureSuccessful deployment of the filter at the intended placement level such that the filter is judged suitable by the Investigator for mechanical protection against pulmonary embolism.
