Abstract
In one example, a system includes an elongated body defining a lumen where the elongated body includes a proximal portion and a distal portion. An anchoring member may be positioned on the proximal portion of the elongated body. The system further includes a sensor located on the elongated body where the sensor may be configured to sense at least one flow parameter of a fluid within the lumen. In some examples, the system includes processing circuitry configured to determine at least one of a density parameter or a temperature parameter of the fluid in the lumen based on the sensed at least one flow parameter of the fluid.
