MCI Biophone 3502 Orange EKG Vintage Medical Equipment

MCI Biophone 3502 Orange EKG Vintage Medical Equipment. This is an EXTREMELY rare MCI Biophone 3502. A unit like this one was used in the theme opening of the show Emergency! The actual one from the show is now located at the Smithsonians National Museum of American History because of its public service.

The biophone was a combination of voice and telemetry radio communications systems used in the 1970s and 80s by paramedics to talk to physicians supervising them from a hospital base station. The key difference between this unit and another two-way radio was that it had the ability to transmit a patients electrocardiogram.

I can almost guarantee this would NOT work for any medical use at this point, but I had a friend who used another battery to get the lights to turn on, hence why the battery is unattached. It has been over 5 years since tinkering with it though so I have no advice about how to do such a thing at this point.

Anyways, its a very hard to find collectors item. It could be cleaned up and displayed to show off its beautiful orange look and remind us of our medical history.
