Additional information received on 1/4/2023: per rep: "this incident occurred before the case began.The ccu was turned on with no camera plugged into it and it was emitting a burning smell.One of the hospital employees noticed where the smell was coming from and turned the ccu off.The employee called me and the biomedical engineering department, and i resolved the issue by replacing it with a ccu from a room that was not conducting laparoscopic cases.I then called in the issue to arthrex support and got a replacement sent that same day.There was no injury or harm to the facility's patient, surgeon, or staff.".
