Abstract
In one embodiment, an integrated cannula and sensor assembly is disclosed. The integrated cannula and sensor assembly includes a cannula with a proximal end and a distal end. The cannula also has a body and a tip. The body includes a channel and a body distal that is defined between the proximal end and the distal end. The tip is defined between the body distal and the distal end. The assembly further includes a sensor assembly that is located within the channel, wherein the tip further includes an undercut configured to retain the sensor assembly.

An integrated cannula and sensor assembly, comprising:
- a cannula having a proximal end and a distal end, the cannula further having a body and a tip, the body including a channel and a body distal being defined between the proximal end and the distal end, the tip being defined between the body distal and the distal end;
- and
- a sensor assembly being located within the channel,
- wherein the tip further includes an undercut configured to retain the sensor assembly.
An integrated cannula and sensor assembly, comprising:
- a cannula having a proximal end and a distal end, the cannula further having a body and a tip, the body including a first channel, a second channel, and a body distal being between the proximal end and the distal end, the tip being between the body distal and the distal end;
- and
- a first sensor assembly being located within the first channel;
- a second sensor assembly being located within the second channel;
- wherein the tip further includes a first undercut that retains the first sensor assembly and a second undercut that retains the second sensor assembly.
