Sterile surgical drape for ophthalmic surgery

The disclosure herein provides methods, systems, and devices for a sterile ophthalmic surgical drape system that can provide a sterile operating field for use by a doctor, surgeon, nurse, and the like during ophthalmic medical procedures. The sterile field created by the drape system can allow a doctor, surgeon, nurse and the like to perform a medical procedure, such as ophthalmic surgery, outside of an operating room and in locations such as a doctor's office or a military operating room war setting. The sterile ophthalmic surgical drape system can comprise a drape, a frame apparatus, a hole of sufficient size for a microscope, a fan, a filter, air directors, and slits. The drape system can comprise a collapsible frame apparatus. The drape system may be configured to be used in conjunction with a surgical tray that houses pre-sterilized tools for use in a medical procedure.

Relocation module and methods for surgical equipment

An anesthetic equipment storage and waste air management module configured to housing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment including a system to measure and record administration of one or more IV medications or fluids for IV administration. The module can include a housing having a lower section and a tower-like upper section, wherein the lower section is configured to house unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment. The module can also include a cowling that substantially confines waste heat generated by the unrelated waste heat-producing electronic and electromechanical surgical equipment, and can include a system for measuring and recording the administration of the one or more IV medications and fluids.

Carrier apparatus for an operating room

A carrier apparatus for a medical device in a medical treatment facility includes a device holder that holds a medical device and a container that receives the device holder with a medical device, such that the device holder can move between an upper resting position in the container and a lower operating position in which a medical device held by the device holder can be used by medical staff.

Surgery patient encapsulating sterile bubble
10016252 · 2018-07-10 ·

A system and method for providing a surgery table or bed adapted to encapsulate a patient to provide a sterile environment during surgery. The apparatus is configured to include an enclosure that is filled with an inert and sterile gas prior to surgery. The patient is accessed through internally extending gloves for use by the surgical staff.

SURGICAL GAS SHIELD MODULE WITH ELEVATION SYSTEM

A surgical gas shield device comprising a gas shield module and an elevation system. The gas shield module has a body housing which is divided into a discharge chamber and a suction chamber. The elevation system is configured to hold said gas shield module around a surgical site at a desired position and orientation. Discharge of a gas introduced from a positive pressure source through discharge ports of the gas shield module over the surgical site and suction of the gas and other air borne byproducts from the surgical site through the suction ports of the gas shield device by application of a partial vacuum create a gas shield over the surgical site. The gas shield module can be fork type or closed loop type. The elevation system can be flexible fold type or inflatable type.

Method for maintaining sterile surgical instruments sterile in surgery

A method of maintaining sterile surgical instruments sterile. The instruments are placed on a tray located on an upper surface of a sterile gas flow conditioning emitter affixed onto an anatomical surface of a patient adjacent a site of incision. The emitter has upper and lower gas vents from its interior, the upper vent facing and opening across the tray for passing sterile gas across the tray to maintain a sterile field on the tray for the instrument.
