The present application relates to a blood pump, preferably for assisting a heart, wherein the blood pump comprises a housing with a distal inlet, a proximal inlet, and a mandrel arranged between the inlet and the outlet. A rotor with blading is arranged on the mandrel coaxially and rotatably. The rotor is mounted on the mandrel magnetically in an axial direction. In one embodiment the outlet is situated proximally to a proximal end of the blading of the rotor.

Blood pump, preferably for assisting a heart

A blood pump includes a hollow body in which an impeller with blading is provided for producing an axial propulsion of blood along the impeller. An at least partly actively stabilized magnetic bearing device is provided wherein the impeller may be set into a rotation about a rotation axis of the impeller, with a motor stator. The hollow body has an inlet for the flow of blood into the hollow body in an inflow direction which is essentially parallel to the rotation axis, and an outlet for the outflow of the blood out of the hollow body in an outflow direction.
