Abstract
In some examples, a device includes a body configured to receive an elongated medical device, and a conductive element configured to contact a touchscreen of a computing device. An amount of contact between the conductive element and the touchscreen varies based on the compressive force applied to the elongated medical device when the elongated medical device is received within the body.
