Zusammenfassung:Disclosed is a pressure monitoring system for a patient that may include a measurement site, a tube, and a pressure transducer, in which, the tube is coupled between the measurement site of the patient and the pressure transducer and the tube contains a fluid for pressure measurement by the pressure transducer from the measurement site. The tube may comprise: a first tubing portion that includes an outer diameter and a plurality of inner diameters and that has a first tensile modulus, in which, the plurality of inner diameters of the first tubing portion form a plurality of fluid paths to contain the fluid; and, a second tubing portion, in which, the first and second tubing portions are coupled together to form the tube and the second tubing portion extends longitudinally with the first tubing portion in a continuous or intermittent manner.
