Discussion: due to limited information, no root cause has been established.The investigative field incident report generally referred to an appearance of electrical malfunction in the powered wheelchair but did not provide detail.There is no confirmation on where the fire started or what was the cause.Investigation by the fire marshal is still in progress.Dealer reported that it had replaced the batteries on the wheelchair in november 2021 and had serviced the power module for the wheelchair in the weeks prior to the incident, but the extent of that service and whether any repair occurred is not known at this time.There has been no communication on official cause of death.No additional information has been provided outside of the initial report and patient condition update.Conclusion: due to the nature of this injury (death), this mdr is being reported out of an abundance of caution.Should new information be received, a supplemental report will be filed.
