A magnetically driven, axial flow pump comprises an electromagnetic unit arranged about the periphery of a pipe. A cylindrical rotor is accommodated within the pipe and is equipped with permanent magnets mounted on the periphery. A spiral, hollow vane is formed on an inner surface of the rotor by either casting or by cutting, such as with a NC machine, thus precluding the occurrence of gaps between the rotor and the vane. The lack of gaps within the pump makes the pump suitable for use as a blood pump.

A generally cylindrical rotor very closely confined between two rigid thrust bearing surfaces is radially suspended by an array of attracting or repelling magnets or by a combination of permanent magnets and ring shaped members composed of ferromagnetic material. The geometry permits very small spacing between magnetic components to achieve high radial stiffness. High magnetic axial forces exerted between the rotor and stationary component on one end of the rotor are counter-balanced by equal and opposite forces at the other end of the rotor. Precise positioning of the rotor in the location where the opposing axial magnetic forces counterballance each other yields a net magnetic axial force on the rotor of near zero, hence the reference to this as the null position. Wear resistant mechanical thrust bearings confine the rotor axially to maintain this position during rotatioin. Precisely balance the magnetic axial forces in the proper geometry with relation to the mechanical thrust bearings. Blood pumps utilizing this type of bearing are disclosed, including both axial flow pump and centrifugal flow pump configurations with high flow washing of the junction of the rotating and stationary parts to prevent thrombus accumulation.

The anchor element is fixed to the wall of the heart near the apex of the heart so that the anchor element holds the pump and outflow cannula in position.

A magnetically driven axial-flow pump comprising (i) an electromagnet unit 1 arranged about the periphery of a pipe "P", (ii) a cylindrical rotor 5 accommodated in the pipe "P", (iii) permanent magnets 6 mounted on the periphery of the rotor 5, and (iv) a spiral vane 7 formed on the inner surface of the rotor 5. A hollow is formed in the axial center portion of the vane 7. Because the rotor 5 and the vane 7 can be made as one piece with an NC machine, precluding the occurrence of gaps in the otherwise-inevitable joint between them, it is easy to make the rotor 5 and the vane 7. Because there are no gaps between the rotor 5 and the vane 7 as mentioned above and there is no object in contact with blood in the center portion of the vane, various germs do not enter blood, no thrombi are formed, blood tissues are not destroyed, and hence the pump is suitable as a blood pump.

The presence or absence of a high pressure condition in an implantable blood pump is determined at least in part based on a comparison between a determined amount of differential pressure across the pump and a pressure threshold value. The amount of differential pressure parameter may be determined based at least in part on a parameter related to flow, such as a parameter related to thrust on the rotor of the pump. In response to determining the presence of a high pressure condition, an updated speed of rotation of the rotor that is less than the rotor's initial speed may be determined. The rotor's speed may be increased when the flow rate of blood is determined to be at least equal to a flow recovery threshold value.
