Original Abstract Submitted

A vascular probe insertion assembly may include a slotted cannula having a sharpened tip configured to be inserted into a patient's vascular anatomy and a sidewall extending proximally from the sharpened tip, the sidewall defining a slot. The vascular probe insertion assembly may include a splitable sheath shaped to encircle at least part of the sidewall and a digital probe comprising a sensor tip configured to generate sensor data indicative of operation of the vascular anatomy and a shaft extending proximally of the sensor tip. The vascular probe insertion assembly may include a data hub operatively coupled to the digital probe. The data hub may be configured to receive the sensor data and convey the sensor data to a monitoring system.
