A barrier for use in one or more of physical examinations, diagnostics, treatments and recreation includes one or more panels. At least one of the panels includes a window through which at least one of a physical examinations, diagnostic procedure and treatment may be performed. The barrier includes at least one structural feature that is configured to reversibly collapse the barrier into a compact configuration while not in use or for transporting the barrier.

A drape connector system can be used to join different sections of drape material, such as different sections of compositionally dissimilar drape material. In some examples, a medical drape is formed that includes a first section of drape material, a second section of drape material, and the connector system. The connector system includes a receiving body defining a groove and a locking body insertable into the groove. A portion of the first section of drape material is positioned overlaying the groove, and a portion of the second section of drape material is also positioned overlaying the groove. The locking body is inserted into the groove thereby locking the portion of the first section of drape material and the portion of the second section of drape material in the groove.

A dual access catheterization sleeve includes a first panel and a second panel attached to each other along sides thereof and at one end, wherein a closed distal end and an open proximal end are formed, a first access fenestration formed through the first panel at a location in a center portion of the sleeve between the proximal and distal ends; and a second access fenestration formed through the first panel at a location between the first access fenestration and the closed distal end. The sleeve is dimensioned to cover a hand and at least a portion of an arm of a patient.

An apparatus for supporting an extremity during tissue irrigation and debridement and containing and capturing fluid and tissue debris resulting therefrom includes an extremity-supporting base and barrier shroud. The apparatus can be used to control drainage of fluid and tissue debris during irrigation and debridement. The apparatus supports and encloses a patient extremity, such as an arm or a leg. The base has a length, proximal end (i.e., nearest the patient's body), and distal end (i.e., farthest from the patient's body). The base may comprise an open-cell foam that is non-collapsible to provide a support surface with a fixed length. The shroud has a top portion, bottom portion, and shroud drainage opening. The shroud can be selectively moveable between a first position in which the support surface is unobstructed to facilitate placement of an extremity thereon and a second position in the shroud at least partially encloses the extremity.

A sterile femoral drape intended to be placed over a surgical patient lying on an operating table to isolate the patient during the surgical procedure, the drape comprising a top sheet of bio-impermeable material of a length and width greater than a conventional operating table such that the top sheet fully encompasses the patient and drapes over the lateral side edges and the bottom (foot) edge of the table. Femoral access holes located proximate to the patient's groin are provided to allow access to the patient's femoral artery during heart catheterizations or other surgical procedures. The drape comprises left and right arm pockets formed underneath the bio-impermeable sheet into which the patient's respective left and right arms are inserted. The patient's arms being positioned within and supported within the arm pockets, fully isolates the patient's arms and hands from the femoral access site, thereby assuring that the patient's hands do not contaminate the femoral access site.

A stockinette (200), suitable for covering an appendage (1440) of a patient, includes one or more folds (206). The fold (206) can be in a length of material (205) disposed between an open end (204) and a closed end (203). Alternatively, the fold (880) can be in an optional cuff (860) formed by a section of material (661) near the open end (603). Folds can be present both in the length of material (205) and in the cuff (860) as well. The cuff (860) can be disposed atop the fold (206) in the length of material (205). The stockinette (200) enables one person to apply the stockinette (200) to an appendage (1440) with one continuous motion that expands the folds.
