The invention relates to a system for performing in vivo pressure measurements, comprising one or more pressure sensors (14), a connector module (20) provided with one or more electrical coupling elements for the one or more pressure sensors and one or more coupling means (10) for a catheter. The one or more coupling means for a catheter are each provided with at least three ports and a tap for coupling two of the three ports as desired. According to the invention each of the one or more coupling means is embodied as a coupling module which is releasably connectable to the connector module, and the pressure sensors (14) are arranged on the coupling modules (10). The invention also relates to a coupling module (10) for a catheter as described as component of the system (1) according to the invention.
A system for performing in vivo pressure measurements, comprising one or more pressure sensors, a connector module provided with one or more electrical coupling elements for the one or more pressure sensors and one or more coupling means for a catheter, wherein the one or more coupling means for a catheter are each provided with at least three ports and a tap for coupling two of the three ports as desired, characterized in that each of the one or more coupling means is embodied as a coupling module which is releasably connectable to the connector module, and that the pressure sensors are arranged on the coupling modules.
A coupling module for a catheter, which coupling module is embodied as two-way tap and is provided with at least three ports and a tap for coupling two of the three ports as desired, wherein the coupling module is provided with a coupling arm extending in line with one of the ports, and wherein a pressure sensor is arranged in the coupling arm.
