An improved draping system with a drape and a lock device. The drape includes an area defined by a predetermined length and a predetermined width, as well as a selectively separable portion. The drape also has a first perforation, as well as a z-shaped fold over the perforation. The lock device may be a poly seal with a second perforation. The draping system is secured to an operating table to maintain sterility about that operating table. When ready for removal, the draping system is simply pulled in opposite directions. When this occurs, the second perforation breaks, which disengages the lock device. Upon further pulling, the z-shaped fold is unfolded. Further pulling still results in the second perforation breaking.

A transparent article of manufacture with improved and convenient access ports, light weight, venting, and ready for quick deployment. It may be single-use or reusable (upon proper sanitation). It has a vent for removal of aerosolized bacterial and viruses, and ports for clinicians to insert their hands. The general pyramidal shape promotes air flow to the vent, where aerosolized bacteria and viruses may be safely expelled, and allows for stacking.

Devices to secure the hand of a patient to a limb positioning device while evenly distributing the applied traction load across the patient's hand and wrist are disclosed. The hand is placed in the open position into a soft mitten, while an anatomically-shaped plate is attached to the mitten for supporting the palm of the hand in the open position. Straps are then secured around the patient's wrist and hand. Finally, the entire device is overwrapped an elastic bandage and secured to the limb positioning device. When traction is applied, the shape of the plate, the construction of the mitten, and the straps combine to allow low-contact pressure across the patient's hand and wrist.

Provided is an article for protection configured with at least one perforable, modifiable access point positioned to allow airway management procedures. Also provided is a method for maintaining the sterile environment during airway management procedures by covering a subject in need thereof with the article for protection.

A surgical drape is adapted for use by a woman during childbirth. The surgical drape includes a fecal collection panel having top, bottom, and opposing side edges. An adhesive is applied to a top marginal area of the collection panel directly adjacent its top edge. The adhesive is adapted for temporarily holding the top edge of the collection panel below the vagina and above the anus of the woman when disposed in a lithotomy position, while the bottom edge of the collection panel resides beneath the buttocks. The collection panel defines a protected access aperture designed for enabling ready access by a delivery assistant to the anus of the woman during childbirth. The protected aperture comprises a line of perforations extending perpendicular from the top marginal area of the collection panel towards the bottom edge.

Systems, devices, and methods for isolating and protecting patients during medical imaging procedures. The devices generally related to disposable personal protective equipment (PPE) that may be used to isolate patients and prevent cross-contamination of infectious diseases during medical imaging.

The present invention provides a surgical drape such that even when it is incised or punctured with a surgical tool in a state where it is pasted to an uneven surface having a low smoothness or to a part having a high curvature, such as a hand, a leg, or the head, a part subjected to incision or the like and its surroundings are unlikely to peel off, the surgical drape having excellent handling properties and safety. The surgical drape is a surgical drape 10 provided with a tacky layer 5 to be incised or punctured with a surgical tool, the tacky layer 5 having a tacky surface 2 to be brought into contact with a region including a surgery site of a living body. The surgical drape 10 has a Young's modulus of 10.0 MPa or less and may further be provided with a film-like base material 15 disposed by lamination on a surface on an opposite side of the tacky surface 2 of the tacky layer 5.
