Patent abstract
Pressure sensing guidewires and methods for making and using pressure sensing guidewires are disclosed. An example pressure sensing guidewire may include a tubular member having a proximal region and a housing region. An optical pressure sensor may be disposed within the housing region. The optical pressure sensor may include a sensor body and a deflectable membrane coupled to the sensor body. The deflectable membrane may include a polymer. An optical fiber may be coupled to the sensor body and may extend proximally therefrom. A pressure equalization channel is formed in the optical fiber, the sensor body, or both.
