The purpose of this study is to assess among patients with an acute myocardial infarction and a hemoglobin concentration less than 10 g/dL, if a liberal transfusion strategy with a threshold of 10 g/dL reduces the rate of the composite outcome of all-cause mortality or recurrent nonfatal acute myocardial infarction through 30 days following randomization compared to a restrictive transfusion strategy with a threshold of 7 to 8 g/dL.

The purpose of the study is to get information about why IVC filters are used, how often retrievable filters are removed, and to collect health information from patients who have IVC filters. This study is intended to properly categorize the adverse events (injury or harmful effect) related to IVC filters reported in the medical literature. All the IVC filters used in this study are FDA approved.

The IVC Filter Group Foundation is a joint effort between the Society of Interventional Radiology (SIR) and the Society for Vascular Surgery (SVS).
