abstract = "Cardiogenic shock due to myocardial infarction is still associated with a high mortality of more than 60%. Early treatment of patients having a low cardiac output with an extra-corporal circulatory support system (ECSS) could prevent multi-organ failure. Current heart-lung machines (HLM) need to be constantly supervised and operated by trained personnel, making it a difficult task to use a HLM in emergency situations. For this project we used the Lifebridge B2T as an existing portable, modular, rapidly available {"}plug and play{"} mechanical circulatory support system. We present the AutoMedic platform for the development of a mobile, autonomous and self-controlling ECSS. This framework was established in order to give medical doctors and engineers a common ground for the design of a controller to automate a ECSS. Such a controller has to be capable of adapting to the individual needs of each patient. Besides, such a system needs to be robust, reliable and must constantly guarantee patient safty.",
