Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004014456A2] Intra-arterial blood pressure is monitored by inserting a pressure transducer sensor using a catheter into an artery and then using a small, hand-held read out device to measure pressure easily, safely, inexpensively and accurately. In one aspect a sensor is introduced into the body by the steps of folding or rolling the sensor into a cylinder, loading it into a catheter, and deploying into the artery by allowing it to unroll or unfold, either by itself or facilitated by the incorporation of a super-elastic allow component.
