The present invention relates to a monitoring system (100) and method for use with a body of a subject. The system comprises a medical device (20), having a portion (28, 21) thereof configured to be placed inside the subject's body, said portion of the medical device being configured to be propelled by fluid pressure through a body lumen, at least two pressure sensors (40, 42, 45, 47) accommodated remotely from the subject's body at two different spaced-apart positions outside the subject's body and configured and operable to detect pressure at the two spaced-apart remote positions; said at least two pressure sensors being in fluid communication with at least one site inside the subject's body, a relation between the pressure at said at least one site and the pressures at said two spaced-apart remote positions being thereby indicative of the fluid pressure at said at least one site.

La présente invention porte sur un système de surveillance (100) et un procédé d'utilisation de celui-ci sur le corps d'un sujet. Le système comprend un dispositif médical (20), dont une partie (28, 21) est configurée pour être placée à l'intérieur du corps du sujet, ladite partie du dispositif médical étant configurée pour être propulsée par une pression de fluide à travers une lumière du corps, au moins deux capteurs de pression (40, 42, 45, 47) placés à distance du corps du sujet en deux positions différentes espacées en dehors du corps du sujet et configurés et actionnables de façon à détecter la pression aux deux positions à distance espacées ; lesdits au moins deux capteurs de pression étant en communication fluide avec au moins un site à l'intérieur du corps du sujet, une relation entre la pression audit au moins un site et les pressions auxdites deux positions à distance espacées étant ainsi indicative de la pression de fluide audit au moins un site.
