1 Impact of Vena Cava Filters on In-hospital Case Fatality Rate from Pulmonary Embolism 
Paul D. Stein, MD, Fadi Matta, MD, Daniel C. Keyes, MD, Gary L. Willyerd, DO  The American Journal of Medicine  Volume 125, Issue 5, Pages (May 2012) DOI: /j.amjmed Copyright © 2012 Elsevier Inc. Terms and Conditions

2 Figure 1 In-hospital all-cause case fatality rate in patients with pulmonary embolism who received a vena cava filter and those who did not. Patients are shown according to whether they were stable or unstable, and whether they received thrombolytic (lytic) therapy. Case fatality rate was lower with a vena cava filter in each group (P<.0001). PE=pulmonary embolism; VC = vena cava.
