The present invention is a fenestration drape and a method for providing skin-to-skin contact of a newborn with the mother immediately after birth during a Cesarean delivery. The novel fenestration drape comprises a portal which may be opened and reclosed without compromise to the sterile barrier. The novel method facilitates the critical contact without interruption and with continuity of sterile field throughout the procedure.

A surgical drape for use during surgery on a patient includes a transparent portion that is used to cover an instrument array. The drape also has a hole containing panel with a flap, whereby at least one line from the instrument array can pass through the drape to the patient. The flap folds down and covers the hole through which the line passes to help maintain the sterile field.

The disclosure is directed to a medical robotic system and method for releasably securing a medical instrument over a modular support assembly that is further removably coupled to the manipulating arm via an intermediate fastening component. The medical instrument is configured for delivery through a small percutaneous penetration in a patient as it slides over the modular support assembly, independent of the manipulating arm. The robotic system further includes a simplified draping mechanism including covering the manipulating arm up to the fastening component thereby obviating the need for extensive sterile drape that extends all over the arm up to the support interface and the cannula holding assembly in existing art. Advantageously, the present invention allows for a quick and simple installation while allowing for free rotary motion of the support assembly.

Die Hygieneabdeckung wird für Augenoperationen angewendet und soll für eine möglichst hohe Bakterienfreiheit sorgen. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Hygieneabdeckung für Augenoperationen zu entwickeln, welche zur Verbesserung der Bakterienfreiheit bei Operationen am Augeninneren beiträgt. Die Hygieneabdeckung soll einfach zu handhaben und an die Größe der Augen anzupassen sein. Die erfindungsgemäße Hygieneabdeckung für Augenoperationen besteht aus einem Abdecktuch mit einer Öffnung für den zu operierenden Bereich und einem elastischen Spannring, welcher in den Zwischenraum zwischen Auge und unterhalb der inneren Lidkante auf dem Abdecktuch positioniert ist, und ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Spannring die Form einer kreisförmig geschlossenen, unter Spannung stehenden Schraubenfeder hat, welche sich nach der Positionierung entfaltet, so dass das Abdecktuch an dieser Stelle angedrückt wird.
摘要:
A method for performing a surgical or medical procedure on a portion of a patient's body within a surgical environment enclosure may involve preparing the surgical environment enclosure for performing the procedure, advancing the portion of the patient's body into the surgical environment enclosure through a first port on the enclosure, and performing the surgical or medical procedure on the portion of the patient's body inside the surgical environment enclosure, through at least a second port on the enclosure. The first port forms a seal around a surface of the patient's body upon or after insertion. In some embodiments, neither the entire body of the patient nor an entire body of any medical or surgical personnel fully enters the surgical environment enclosure during performance of the surgical or medical procedure.

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Haltevorrichtung (1 ) für ein chirurgisches Robotersystem, mit einer Klemmvorrichtung (11') zum lösbaren Halten eines chirurgischen Gegenstandes (12), die zumindest zwei Klemmbacken (14, 15) und ein Lagerteil (8) umfasst, an dem wenigstens eine der Klemmbacken (10, 15) beweglich gelagert ist, und mit zumindest einem Betätigungselement (18, 19) zum Betätigen wenigstens einer der Klemmbacken (14, 15), wobei die Haltevorrichtung (11) für einen bestimmungsgemäßen Gebrauch mit einer sterilen Umhüllung (13) versehen sein kann. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass das Betätigungselement (18, 19) axial bewegbar an dem Lagerteil (8) geführt ist.
摘要:
A protective sheath device for use in protecting lead wire cables from contamination during use in a hospital or other medical setting is described. A glove-like component having fingers, with each finger intended to protect one lead wire, is placed on a base or mounting piece. The base has extensions that fit within the fingers, and the fingers are gathered to reduce their length. This facilitates placement of a lead wire cable within each finger. Once the cables are placed within the fingers of the glove-like component, the base can be discarded and the terminal heads of the lead wire cables are grasped and pulled to extend the fingers of the glove-like component and to protect a length of the lead wire cables. If the base is a mounting piece, it is preferably retained for later uses and is made of a material such as rubber or plastic that can be sanitized and reused. The lead wire cable heads can be snapped directly onto sensor pads and will function through the material of the glove-like component, which is preferably a plastic. After use, the glove-like component is discarded and the lead wire cables and heads remain uncontaminated.
