WEBAn IVC filter is a small, wiry device. When the filter is placed in your IVC, the blood flows past the filter. The filter catches blood clots and stops them from moving up to the heart and lungs. This helps to prevent a pulmonary embolism. The IVC filter is placed through a small incision in a vein in your groin or neck.
