Event or Problem Description

|
It was reported that, during a procedure, there was an operating room fire.Drapes caught fire due to the use of an alcohol-based cleaning agent on the patient when the pencil was activated.The pencil was reportedly sparking excessively at the time of the incident.The fire was small, started on the patient¿s elbow and went upwards to the shoulder.The fire was extinguished by patting it out and pouring saline from the back table onto both the drapes and the patient¿s arm.The burn on the patient was diagnosed as a 2nd-degree burn, size of a quarter.The burn site was covered with a surgical dressing.The generator and hand piece worked normally.The alcohol-based cleaning agent was not dry and ignited when exposed to electrosurgical.The procedure was completed using the new generator and device.
