Medical Device Appraisal

Medtronic Medical Device Control Unit

This item is a control unit for a medical device manufactured by Medtronic, a prominent company in the medical technology industry. The device features a predominantly off-white plastic casing with a black faceplate surrounding the display and control buttons. It has a rectangular shape with slightly rounded corners on the front panel. The main interface consists of a central LCD screen, currently displaying 'Tuesday, November 4th, 2025 4:13 am', indicating it's possibly a clock or scheduling function. The screen has a green-yellowish backlight, typical of older LCDs. To the left of the screen are four oval-shaped, light blue buttons with white circular centers, arranged vertically. Below the screen is a numerical keypad ranging from 0 to 9, followed by two additional buttons, one possibly for decimal input and another for backspacing or navigation (indicated by an arrow icon). To the right of the screen are two prominent rectangular buttons: a green 'YES' button and an orange 'NO' button, suggesting decision-making or confirmation functionalities. In the upper right corner of the black faceplate, there's a circular 'i' icon, likely indicating an 'information' or 'menu' button. The 'Medtronic' logo is clearly visible in the upper left corner of the black faceplate. The unit appears to be in good overall condition, with no immediate visible signs of major damage such as cracks or deep scratches on the casing or screen. There might be some minor surface wear consistent with use. Based on the screen technology and design, the device likely dates from the late 1990s to early 2010s. The craftsmanship appears to be industrial standard, robust for medical use.
