The invention concerns a blood pump, in particular a ventricular cardiac
support pump, with formed in a pump housing a blood chamber which is
designed to hold a rotor rotatable about a rotor axis and at opposite ends
in sections forms an inlet connectable with an inlet cannula, where an
outlet from the blood chamber connectable with an outlet cannula extends
in a direction perpendicular to the rotor axis, and where the rotor axis
at its ends is mounted rotatably in mechanically active bearings provided
in the area of the inlet concerned and connected with the pump housing.
