  • Patent number: 5429142
    Abstract: The present invention allows operating room personnel to easily and expeditiously drape electronic surgical devices, such as video monitors, cameras, lights, and power sources. This invention relates to a disposable, four-sided surgical drape that maintains a protective cover over the equipment. The drape consists of an opaque material on the two side panels and the top panel of the drape. The front panel is preferably formed of a clear, pliable plastic material, with a rectangularly shaped front panel cutout at the top portion of the panel. This front panel cutout and the attached adhesive strip allow surgical personnel to visually access the video monitor and seal the front panel to the monitor. The rear and underside of the cover are open to ensure proper ventilation and easy application.
