Zusammenfassung:A medical system for monitoring pressure may comprise a medical device with an expandable element, at least one pressure sensor in communication with the expandable element and a control unit. The control unit may include a fluid source in fluid communication with the expandable element and circulation of the fluid within the expandable element may inflate the expandable element. A processing circuitry may be configured to monitor a pressure within the expandable element based on signals received from the at least one pressure sensor for a first period of time and circulation of the fluid within the expandable element for a second period of time.
