According to the recently scanned and released transformer list on VintageTek it's for the 408, 412, or 414 portable patient monitors.

Re: Switching power supplies
I have to agree with Chuck. Most test equipment with imbedded/integrated switchers are going to be very difficult to qualify parts if working. Their functionality can be extremely subtle. Blanket
