Methods and systems are provided for the circulation of blood using a purge-free miniature pump. In one embodiment, a pump (100) is provided that may comprise a housing (200) including a rotor (400) and a stator (300) within a drive unit (210). In this embodiment, the pump (100) may establish a primary blood flow (240) through the space between the drive unit (210) and the housing (200) and a secondary blood flow (255) between the rotor (400) and stator (300). In another embodiment, a method is provided for introducing the pump (100) into the body and circulating blood using the pump (100). |
