Intra ventricular ambulatory implantable PV loop system

1. A blood pump, comprising:

a housing including an inlet element defining a major longitudinal axis, the inlet element having a distal portion coupled to the housing and a proximal portion sized to be received within at least a portion of a heart of a patient, and a rotor configured to rotate within the housing and impel blood from the heart;

a flange member configured to be least partially disposed around the proximal portion of the inlet element and perpendicular to the major longitudinal axis, the flange member defining an aperture, the inlet element being configured to extend through the aperture; and

a pressure sensor coupled to the flange member.

2. The blood pump of claim 1 , wherein the inlet element defines a first diameter, and wherein the flange member defines a second diameter larger than the first diameter.

3. The blood pump of claim 2 , further including an ultrasonic transducer coupled to the distal portion of the inlet element.

4. The blood pump of claim 3 , wherein the ultrasonic transducer is coupled to the flange member.

5. The blood pump of claim 4 , wherein the ultrasonic transducer and the pressure sensor are coupled to a microelectromechanical system (“MEMS”).

6. The blood pump of claim 5 , wherein the MEMS is configured to be adhered to the flange member.

7. The blood pump of claim 6 , wherein the housing further includes a stator having a plurality of coils, and wherein the stator is configured to generate a magnetic force to rotate the rotor, and wherein the stator includes a plurality of conductors configured to couple with a power source.

8. The blood pump of claim 7 , wherein the plurality of conductors are electrically coupled to the MEMS.

9. The blood pump of claim 8 , wherein the MEMS includes a wireless transmitter, and wherein the ultrasonic transducer and the pressure sensor are in communication with a wireless transmitter coupled to the inlet element.

10. The blood pump of claim 1 , further including a flange member at least partially disposed around the proximal portion of the inlet element, and wherein an ultrasonic sensor is coupled to the flange member.

11. A blood pump system, comprising: a housing including: an inlet element defining a major longitudinal axis, the inlet element having a distal portion coupled to the housing and impel blood from the heart; and two stators, each stator having a plurality of coils, and each stator is configured to generate a magnetic force to rotate the rotor and includes a plurality of conductors configured to couple with a power source; a flange member disposed around a circumference of the proximal portion of the inlet element and perpendicular to the major longitudinal axis, the flange member including a MEMS coupled to the plurality of conductors and adhered to a proximal surface of the flange member, the flange member defining an aperture, the inlet element being configured to extend through the aperture; and a pressure sensor and an ultrasonic transducer coupled to the MEMS.
