Zusammenfassung:An intermittent urinary catheterisation assembly (1) comprising an intermittent urinary catheter (3) comprising a conduit (11) extending longitudinally within the tube. The assembly further comprises a measuring system (4) configured to measure at least a pressure in the conduit and/or in a space in communication with the conduit. The measuring system comprises at least one valve element (37) in fluid communication with the conduit when the signal processing device is secured in relation to the intermittent urinary catheter. A cut-off element (41) configured to switch from a closed state to an open state. The measuring system further comprises at least one sensor element configured to measure a parameter indicative of the pressure applied to the cut-off element when the cut-off element switches from the closed state to the open state.
