An operating room patient care technician was setting up an operating room for a surgery that required use of a headlight.The integra headlight is used along with a battery pack that clips to the surgeon's waist.The patient care technician correctly identified the headlight and grabbed a cord he believed to be the connector between the headlight and battery pack as it looked the same.He brought the two components together and states there was a spark, smoke, and he dropped the two.The cord in fact belonged to a wall unit battery charger for another piece of equipment, the spider2.
