Zusammenfassung:	Medical devices and methods for making medical devices are disclosed. An example medical device (300) includes a pressure sensing guidewire. The pressure sensing guidewire may include a tubular member (312) having a proximal portion (349) and a distal portion (348). The distal portion may have a plurality of slots (318) formed therein. The distal portion may have a first wall thickness along a first region and a second wall thickness different from the first wall thickness along a second region. A pressure sensor (320) may be disposed within the distal portion of the tubular member.
