Birtcher, model 365, single channel ECG. To print a 12-lead, you have to switch through all the leads using the buttons on the machine. It's small enough to fit in a backpack, but computer programmer husband says that owing to the tiny LCD screen, the absolute oldest it would be is circa 1985 - still quite old.

Our DON was cleaning out a closet at work and found an old ECG machine.. there's a handwritten date on the manual that says 1991. I got to take it home! Husband and I tried it out with the included (albeit expired) electrodes... the printing speed is off, so NSR looks like sinus tach or sinus brady depending on its mood.
Anyway, I just thought it was cool
