A self-contained transportable life support system for resuscitation, stabilization, and transport of a patient has an environmentally controlled housing for receiving and supporting a patient and a plurality of medical devices disposed within the housing. A control circuit attached to the housing has at least a portion thereof extending to an external surface of the housing for regulating operation of the medical devices and environmental conditions of within the housing in response to monitored life support conditions of the patient.

1. A self-contained transportable life support system for resuscitation, stabilization, and transport of a patient, the system comprising:a) an environmentally controlled housing for receiving and supporting a patient; b) a plurality of medical monitoring devices disposed within the housing and operatively coupled to the patient, each of the medical monitoring devices being operative to generate a life support signal corresponding to a monitored physiological condition of the patient; c) a plurality of medical treatment devices disposed within the housing and operatively coupled to the patient, each respective one of the plurality of medical treatment devices being operative to treat a specific physiological function of said patient; and d) a control circuit having a memory with a patient care management algorithm stored therewithin, the control circuit being attached to the housing and in electrical communication with the medical monitoring devices and the medical treatment devices, the patient care management algorithm being operative to direct the control circuit to substantially simultaneously monitor the life support signals generated by the medical monitoring devices and to control the operation of the medical treatment devices such that each respective one of the medical devices is implemented and regulated in response to at least two monitored life support signals wherein at least one monitored life support signal corresponds to a physiological condition selected from the group consisting of the patient's blood pressure, heart rate, respiration rate and volume, inspired and expired carbon dioxide and oxygen, hemoglobin oxygen saturation level, temperature, brain function, and blood chemistry.
