It was reported that a spark was coming from a peritoneal dialysis (pd) patient¿s cycler.The patient contact reported there was a spark on the power cord near the back of the cycler during drain 1 of 5 of treatment.No smoke or burning smell was noted.The contact stated the cycler touchscreen went dark after the spark occurred and no longer turned on.The patient was connected during the incident.There was no power outage or noted outlet issue, and the power cord was securely plugged on.The cycler was switched on and there was no sound when the ok/stop buttons were pressed and no light on the cycler buttons or iq drive.At that point in time, the technical support representative advised the patient to discontinue use of the cycler.It was reported that an alternate treatment was available.A replacement cycler was issued to the patient.Upon follow up, the pdrn confirmed there was no patient involvement as the patient was connected to the cycler and was in drain 1 of 5 of treatment when the reported event occurred the pdrn confirmed that there was no harm because of this malfunction.The patient did not develop any symptoms, adverse events, injuries, or require medical intervention as a result of the reported event.The pdrn indicated the cycler had never been dropped nor physically damaged and confirmed that the spark only occurred once on the day the patient contact called into technical support.The pdrn stated that no burning smell melting or flame was noted.The pdrn stated that the patient was able to complete the peritoneal dialysis treatment using continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (capd) in the absence of the cycler.The pdrn confirmed the patient received a replacement cycler and has had no further issues.The cycler has been returned to the manufacturer for physical evaluation.

Additional information: plant investigation: the actual device was returned to the manufacturer for physical evaluation.An external visual inspection showed no signs of physical damage.The cycler passed a simulated treatment (post-accelerated stress test) for 2 hours and 15 minutes with 8500ml without any failures or problems.The cycler passed a voltage test, catch post hi pot test, patient hi pot test and safety analyzer test.There were no visual discrepancies encountered during the internal inspection of the cycler.There were no indications of sparking occurring or any visual evidence of any heat damage on or within the cycler.The cycler did not power off or on its own during the above testing.A review of the device manufacturing records was conducted by the manufacturer.There were no deviations or non-conformances during the manufacturing process.In addition, a device history record (dhr) review was performed and verified that the results of the in-progress and final quality control (qc) testing met all requirements.Upon completion of the evaluation, the reported issue was unconfirmed and the cause could not be determined.The cycler was refurbished following the evaluation.
