Abstract: A device comprises an implantable blood pump receivable in a sheath for percutaneous delivery. The implantable blood pump comprises a collapsible impeller mounted in a collapsible impeller cage, and a drive device mounted in a housing. The housing is in connection between a first end of a catheter and the collapsible impeller cage. The drive device is adapted for rotating the collapsible impeller. A retractable support structure is adapted to extend from the catheter. The extended retractable support structure is adapted to engage with the wall of the aorta for allowing the implantable blood pump to be secured in the left ventricle. The collapsible impeller cage comprises an inlet and an outlet. The inlet is adapted to receive blood from the left ventricle. The outlet directs blood in the direction of the atrioventricular valve.
