A medical device includes a housing having a distal portion with a probe extending therefrom. The housing is graspable by a user to manipulate the housing and the probe. The medical device further includes a pressure sensing system including a pressure sensor and a processing unit coupled with the pressure sensor. The pressure sensor is configured to be carried by the probe. The processing unit is carried by the housing and is configured to receive input signals from the pressure sensor. The medical device further includes an output unit coupled to the processing unit and carried by the housing. The output unit is configured to output a reporting signal to a display. The reporting signal is indicative of a pressure at the pressure sensor.
