The invention is generally directed to a sterile surgical drape designed to provide a sterile barrier with a self-contained, expandable sterile pocket. The sterile surgical drape includes a pocket sized and shaped to accommodate the C-arm of an X-ray machine. The pocket spans the width of the operative site and includes an elastic band along a top edge to ensure that the pocket does not drop below the sterile field when not in use. In this way, the pocket is maintained around the C-arm and the sterile field is preserved during use. The surgical drape can optionally include an adhesive antimicrobial strip configured with an elongated length. The surgical drape can further optionally include one or more pouches sized and shaped to retain surgical instruments or tools.

An assembly including a suctioning device suitable for being placed on an incision and/or a wound of a patient to disinfect and/or dry the incision or wound, the device including a drape. The drape includes an outer layer with an upper face and a lower face, the upper face being impermeable, an inner layer, made of non-woven sterile material, including an upper face and a lower face, the lower face to come into contact with the wound and/or the incision. The drape is wound around a limb or around the body of the patient. The assembly also includes a suctioning zone having cavities, a discharge tube connected to the suctioning zone, and a suctioning member is a system for recovering portable or mobile autologous blood.

Removable barrier devices (e.g., sleeves) for covering medical scanning devices to reduce the chance of cross-contamination between patients and/or to protect the scanning devices from physical damage. The barrier device can include a cover that has an integrated window for passing optical signals between the scanning device and an external environment. The cover can include a sleeve that covers a handle portion of the scanning device to prevent contamination of the handle from a user's hand or glove. The cover and sleeve may both be formed of the same flexible material, or the cover may be rigid to maintain the window in a fixed position and the sleeve may be flexible to allow a user to activate a button or touchpad on the handle. An interface region between the cover and sleeve may provide a hermetic seal. The window may include a nanostructured antireflective material to limit internal reflections.

The present disclosure relates to a surgical drape to be used in conjunction with a surgical procedure, and more specifically to a surgical drape that includes one or more of the following: (1) a patient drape for use with a standalone non-draped image acquisition device; (2) a patient drape for use with a standalone non-draped image acquisition device with image guidance navigation technology; (3) the means to provide temporary sterile coverage of an underlying sterile field; (4) the means to provide sterile separation of at least a portion, if not the entire temporary sterile coverage; and (5) the means to provide covering of the undersurface of the operating surface and enclosing any suspended medical devices, wires, cables, tubes, etc.

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.

The present invention comprises a sterilizing wrap system comprising a base having a support surface and a first sealing surface spaced from the support surface, the support surface supports at least one object requiring sterilization. A wrap is sized to engage the first sealing surface of the base to define a volume encompassing the support surface and the spaced first sealing surface of the base. A first seal maintains a sealed interface between the wrap and the first sealing surface.

A shield for the bore of radiology scanners provides a resilient sheet material that can be compressed against the inner surface of the bore by a circumference expander greatly simplifying installation.

Disclosed is a sterile cover (100) for a Mixed Reality (MR) device (101). The sterile cover (100) may comprise a first case (102) arranged for covering a front side of the MR device (101). The first case (102) may comprise a hard case with an embedded clear layer (114) for covering a glass area of the front side of the MR device (101). The sterile cover (100) may further comprise a second case (104). The second case (104) may be arranged for covering a headband side of the MR device (101). The second case (104) may comprise a stretchable case for allowing a flexible adjustment of the headband side of the MR device (101) within the second case (104).

A surgical stapler for stapling the tissue of a patient is disclosed. The surgical stapler comprises a handle, a shaft extending from the handle, and an end effector. The end effector comprises a tissue compression surface, a plurality of staples, and an anvil comprising staple forming pockets, wherein the anvil is movable toward the tissue compression surface during a closing stroke to clamp the patient tissue against and tissue compression surface. The surgical stapler further comprises an anvil closing system configured to move the anvil through the closing stroke, a staple firing system configured to deploy the staples during a staple firing stroke, and means for clamping and holding the patient tissue during the staple firing stroke and moving the end effector relative to the patient tissue after the staple firing stroke.

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.
