Problems solved by technology

It has now been recognized that many of these known surgical drapes are undesirable because they are constructed such that once the cover is removed, contamination of the surgical field is possible, especially when the cover is folded into the surgical field

Abstract

Disclosed is a surgical drape configured to selectively allow or block a patient's view of the surgical field, as is desired in Caesarean section operations. Generally, the drape includes a main sheet, a substantially transparent sheet attached to the main sheet proximal the patient's head, and a substantially opaque screen attached to the patient-facing side of the substantially transparent sheet. This substantially opaque screen occludes the patient's visual access through the substantially transparent sheet but may be at least partially removed to permit the patient viewing access through the substantially transparent sheet towards the area of the surgery, without compromising the sterility of the surgical field. Desirably, the drape is provided with an adhesive strip disposed on the sheet or screen to permit reconnection to thereby again occlude the patient's view through the sheet.

Description

technical field [0001] This patent relates to a surgical drape for covering a patient during a surgical procedure. Background technique [0002] Currently, traditional Caesarean sections (also known as "C-sections") are most commonly performed with the patient covered by a solid surgical drape. The surgical drape is usually constructed from a combination of layers of spunbond and meltblown materials, which are commonly referred to as SMS nonwovens. [0003] Since the mother is usually awake and alert during a C-section, it is desirable to provide a barrier or screen to block the mother's view of the surgical site during the procedure. Many traditional surgical drape are "T" shaped, with the top portion of the "T" acting as an anesthesia screen that blocks the patient's view of the surgical site. The drape is placed on the patient to isolate the sterile field near the patient's abdomen. The anesthesia screen is supported on vertical struts at each side of the table near th...
