The automated alien medical device was a device used by the automated repair station. In 2152, it healed Lieutenant Malcolm Reed's left leg, which had been injured by a Romulan mine. It healed the limb using a cytokinetic enzyme to stimulate the cell division inside the leg. Reed asked Doctor Phlox three times about whether the device could be trusted, clearly skeptical about its implementation. Phlox was delighted with the device, though, even going so far as to suggest their commanding officer, Captain Jonathan Archer, could perhaps negotiate a trade for it. The device then beamed away, leaving a thrilled Phlox to double-check it had completely healed Reed's heretofore wounded leg. (ENT: "Dead Stop")

This device is not specifically named on screen, simply referred to as a "device" by Phlox. However, in the final draft script of "Dead Stop", it is referred to initially as "a free-standing alien medical device" (with the last three words emboldened) and subsequently as "the drone".
The prop used as this device was clearly a modified reuse of the exocomp from TNG: "The Quality of Life".
