摘要： A rectal tonometer device for quantitatively detecting and measuring a rectal tone of a patient. The device includes a main body including a cavity within and a deformable tip, including a pressure sensor, partially disposed in the cavity and extending from the main body. Deforming the tip may actuate the pressure sensor. The rectal tonometer device further includes a circuit board disposed within the cavity, communicatively coupled to the deformable tip capable of accepting a pressure signal from the pressure sensor and measuring, based on the pressure signal, the rectal tone of the patient.
