Catheter for imaging and measurement of pressure and other physiological parameters

A medical device comprising:

• peripherally inserted central catheter having an elongated tube structure comprising a proximal end, a distal end, and a lumen extending therethrough;
• a set of sensors coupled to a distal section of the tube structure, the set of sensors comprising a plurality of pressure sensors longitudinally spaced along a length of the distal section of the tube structure and at least one imaging sensor;
• a hemostatic valve having a power and data coupling device configured to provide power to, and receive data from, the set of sensors, the power and data coupling device comprising a wireless transmitter;
• and
• one or more power and/or data lines that extend across or within a wall of the tube structure between the power and data coupling device and the set of sensors,
• wherein the power and data coupling device is configured to conductively couple to the one or more power and/or data lines through capacitive coupling with the one or more power and/or data lines and is configured to send and receive power and/or data signals through the one or more power and/or data lines, and
• wherein the proximal power and data coupling device is configured to wirelessly communicate with one or more external devices and to transmit data received from the set of sensors to the one or more external devices.
