Some individuals had life support systems to compensate for what would otherwise be fatal injuries. On [[Skaro]], [[Davros]] was given a [[Davros' chair|life support system]] after being crippled. Later, the [[Kaled]]s built a [[Casing|combination life support system and travel machine]] for the [[Dalek mutant|creatures]] they knew that they would evolve into.

([[TV]]: ''[[Timelash (TV story)|Timelash]]'') On [[Sto]], [[Max Capricorn]]'s cybernetic body functioned as a life support system. ([[TV]]: ''[[Voyage of the Damned (TV story)|Voyage of the Damned]]'') [[Hydroflax]]'s robot body was a life support system. ([[TV]]: ''[[The Husbands of River Song (TV story)|The Husbands of River Song]]'') [[Ianto Jones]] took parts from a [[cyber-conversion unit]] and modified them into a life support for [[Lisa Hallett]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Cyberwoman (TV story)|Cyberwoman]]'')
