Event Description
|
A biomedical technician (biomed) at a user facility reported that a fresenius 2008t hemodialysis (hd) machine had a burned power control board.The power control board was burned on the back at the location of a red capacitor.The issue was identified after the machine initially failed to power on and arcing was observed from the ground-fault circuit interrupter (gfci) outlet.A patient was not connected to the machine at the time of the incident and there was no harm to any patients or individuals because of this malfunction.The biomed replaced the power control board, which resolved the issue.The unit was returned to service at the user facility without issue and without reoccurrence of the event.The power control board was not returned to the manufacturer for physical evaluation.
