It was reported to philips by the biomed that the device was plugged into a wall outlet and immediately shut off and will not power on.The device was in clinical use at the time of the event.The customer stated that the device was either discovered while in use on a patient or while being set up in the room for the patient.The biomed stated the device was swapped, and another v60 was placed on the patient.There was no patient harm or injury reported, and there was no additional medical intervention required.The customer evaluated the device with assistance from a philips remote service engineer (rse).The rse advised the biomed to try swapping the pm pcb or possibly the power supply.A good faith effort was made, and the biomed stated on (b)(6) 2020 that that facility believes the wall outlet was faulty.The biomed performed an evaluation on the device and determined that the power supply and battery also needed replacement.The biomed confirmed that with a new power supply, the unit powers up and appears to function normally.The battery has been ordered and will be replaced upon delivery.
