Abstract: A guide wire arrangement is provided. The guide wire arrangement includes an elongate coil element having two opposing ends; a force transmitting element arranged at one of the two opposing ends of the coil element; a sensor assembly arranged in the coil element at a predefined distance away from the force transmitting element; and a core wire extending from the force transmitting element to the sensor element through the coil element; wherein the coil element is configured to allow the core wire to be moveable relative to the sensor assembly and the sensor assembly is configured to detect movement of the core wire relative to the sensor assembly upon force impact on the force transmitting element.

Abstract: A guide wire arrangement, a strip arrangement, a method of forming a guide wire arrangement, and a method of forming a strip arrangement are provided. The guide wire arrangement includes a strip; a sensor being disposed on a first portion of the strip; a chip being disposed next to the sensor on a second portion of the strip, wherein the second portion of the strip is next to the first portion of the strip; wherein the strip is folded at a folding point between the first portion of the strip and the second portion of the strip such that the first portion of the strip and the second portion of the strip form a stack of strip portions.
