Abstract
Various devices, systems, and techniques for cleaning blood pumps are provided. A cleaning apparatus can be provided that can include a housing having a hinged lid that defines a first surface of the housing. The hinged lid can be configured to allow access to an interior volume of the housing. The housing can have an opening on a second surface opposite the first surface. The housing can define a conduit channel configured to receive at least a portion of a tube. The cleaning apparatus can include a pumping mechanism configured to be operably coupled to a motor through the opening. The pumping mechanism can be disposed within the interior volume of the housing. The pumping mechanism can be configured to compress the tube extending through the cleaning apparatus during operation so as to continuously maintain a positive pressure downstream of the pumping mechanism.
