A multi-chamber impeller pump includes an impeller, circumferentially spaced cams defining an impeller chamber, and circumferentially spaced evacuation ports. Each cam includes an engagement edge, an arcuate cam surface sloping radially inward, and a lobe. Each evacuation port is proximal to an intersection of a respective arcuate cam surface and lobe. As the impeller rotates, a corresponding end of a leading blade contacts a respective engagement edge and then a corresponding end of a trailing blade contacts the respective engagement edge thereby forming a unit chamber between leading and trailing blades. As the impeller continues to rotate, the end of the leading blade contacts a respective lobe and displaces the leading blade to decrease the volume of the unit chamber and expel fluid from the unit chamber through a respective evacuation port. A method of using the multi-chamber impeller pump is also disclosed.
