A method of aspirating a hematoma from a body space via a catheter coupled to a pump assembly includes advancing a tip of the catheter into proximity with the hematoma within the body space. The pump assembly includes a pump, a motor, a sensor, and a controller. The method further includes actuating the pump assembly to: operate the pump in a first mode during which the motor drives the pump at a first aspiration speed; receive at the controller a pressure signal associated with a catheter pressure from the sensor of the pump assembly; and on a condition that the catheter pressure is below a pressure threshold, operate the pump in a second mode during which the motor drives the pump cyclically between a second aspiration speed and an infusion speed such that the catheter pressure cycles between an upper pressure limit and a lower pressure limit.
A method of aspirating a hematoma from a body space via a catheter coupled to a pump assembly, the pump assembly including a pump, the method comprising:
