ABSTRACT:
The multiple optical fiber event sensor apparatus includes a semi-permeable tubular sleeve, and a plurality of individual optical fiber event sensor modules within the sleeve arranged in an axially staggered relationship. A rounded tip is also provided on the distal end of the sleeve. The device provides for a multiplicity of individual sensors incorporated in a single tubular sleeve which minimizes cross-interference and thrombus formation when used as an intravascular multi-sensor.
