IVC filter design categories
1) Permanent - maximize secure fixation
2) Temporary filter - no fixation, needs wire or catheter to stay transcutaneous while its in
3) Convertible filter - can convert to a non-filtering state to remove the filter
4) Optional/retrievable filter - added features to allow removal

Balance between self-centering and leg penetration
Self-centering requires more hooks
more hooks results in higher chance of leg penetration or incorporation
