A pump for the delivery of a fluid includes a core, a restrictor, and an expandable bladder. The core is configured to extend longitudinally along an axis of the pump. The restrictor is configured to limit the longitudinal extension of the core to a predetermined maximum length. The expandable bladder is attached to the support core in at least one position and configured to receive a fluid.

1. A pump for delivery of a fluid, comprising: a support core including a first sliding core member and a second sliding core member configured to move relative to each other to longitudinally extend the support core along an axis of the pump;an expandable bladder, having an inside, the expandable bladder attached to the support core in at least one position and configured to receive a fluid;a filling port coupled to the first sliding core member and an output port coupled to the second sliding core member, the first sliding core member including a first flow path extending from the filling port to the inside of the expandable bladder and the second sliding core member including a second flow path extending from the inside of the expandable bladder to the output port, wherein the first flow path and the second flow path are separate and distinct from one another; anda restrictor configured to limit the longitudinal extension of the support core to a predetermined maximum length. 2. The pump of claim 1, further comprising a cover enclosing the bladder and at least a portion of the support core. 3. The pump of claim 2, wherein the cover has a size and shape such that when the bladder is filled with a fluid, the bladder has a size and position that are substantially independent of the size and shape of the cover. 4. The pump of claim 2, wherein the cover is sized and dimensioned such that a gap exists between an outer surface of the bladder and an inner surface of the cover when the bladder is filled with fluid. 5. The pump of claim 1, wherein the bladder is formed substantially of silicone. 6. The pump of claim 1, wherein the position at which the bladder is attached to the support core is selected based on at least one of a volume of the bladder when filled with fluid and a desired flow rate of a fluid delivered from the pump. 7. The pump of claim 1, wherein the first sliding core member and the second sliding core member are configured to slide longitudinally relative to each other.) 8. The pump of claim 7, further comprising a connector for connecting the first sliding core member and the second sliding core member. 9. The pump of claim 1, wherein the restrictor comprises a ball bearing positioned in a channel. 10. The pump of claim 9, wherein the length of the channel is determined based on the predetermined maximum length of the support core. 11. The pump of claim 1, wherein the support core is configured to expand longitudinally when fluid enters the bladder and to contract longitudinally when fluid exits the bladder. 12. The pump of claim 1, wherein the pump is configured to deliver fluid at a substantially constant flow rate. 13. A method for the delivery of a fluid from a pump, comprising: receiving fluid into a bladder through a filling port, including extending a support core including a first sliding core member and a second sliding core member configured to move relative to each other longitudinally to extend the support core along an axis of the pump, the first sliding core member coupled to the filling port and the second sliding core member coupled to the output port, the first sliding core member including a first flow path extending from the filling port to the inside of the expandable bladder and the second sliding core member including a second flow path extending from the inside of the expandable bladder to the output port,wherein the first flow path and the second flow path are separate and distinct from one another, and expanding the bladder, the extension of the support core limited to a predetermined maximum length by a restrictor; anddelivering fluid from the pump through the output port, including contracting the bladder, andretracting the support core along the longitudinal axis of the pump. 14. The method of claim 13, wherein delivering fluid from the pump includes delivering fluid at a substantially constant flow rate. 15. The method of claim 13, wherein extending the support core includes sliding the first sliding core member of the support core longitudinally relative to the second sliding core member of the support core. 16. The method of claim 13, wherein expanding the bladder includes expanding the bladder to a shape and position that is substantially independent of a size and shape of a cover enclosing the bladder. 17. The method of claim 13, wherein the bladder is formed substantially of silicone.
