## Discrepancy

MEDICAL CREW NOTICED AN ODOR COMING FROM THE MEDICAL STRETCHER BASE.  THEY FOUND THE PRESSURE PUMP WAS GETTING WARM AND ELECTED TO TURN UNIT OFF.  ODOR WENT AWAY. CREW DEFERED THE STRETCHER BASE ELECTRICAL AND DISCONNECTED IT.  OPERATED THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP WITH THE MEDICAL AIR BOTTLES IN USE.  MAINTENANCE FOUND PRESSURE PUMP BAD AND REPLACED WITH ANOTHER UNIT IN SERVICEABLE CONDITION.  REMOVED FROM DEFERED ITEMS LIST.  NO FURTHER ACTION TAKEN.
