Event or Problem Description
The complaint was reported from a long term care facility in france.There is no adverse event or injury associated with the complaint.A nurse was removing/disconnecting a full ifill oxygen cylinder from the ifill oxygen transfill unit, at which time she heard a loud sound and saw a brief flame coming from the oxygen connecting port.The nurse is unsure if the ifill unit was running or had stopped at the time she disconnected cylinder but it noted the ifill unit was plugged into the wall.The nurse stated she heard a loud sound and saw a brief flame, which caused the nurse to drop the cylinder to the floor.Once the cylinder was on the floor the event ended; she reported no other issues with the cylinder or the ifill unit.The cylinder and transfill device were quarantined and the oxygen supplier contacted.The facility acknowledges the routine use of cleaning agent on the ifill cylinder that contains high concentrations of propranolol and ethanol.The cleaning agent is highly flammable and is contraindicated for use with oxygen equipment.There were no injuries or damage related to this event.
