Abstract
The present invention provides an intravascular blood pump comprising a handle in operational connection and communication with a rotational motor and impeller assembly that is configured for placement and positioning within a patient's vasculature. The handle comprises a display for displaying real-time physiological parameters associated with the blood pump procedure and controls for modifying operational parameters. In some embodiments, the display portion of the handle may be connected and/or disconnected from the non-display portion to allow re-use of the display portion in subsequent blood pump procedures.
