Abstract: The invention relates to a device for establishing and maintaining a sterile environment for conducting surgical procedures. In particular, the invention is related to a tent-like device providing an interior space and being attachable to a patient's skin to allow surgical treatment of the patient. Several aspects of the invention are directed to devices to be used in connection with such a surgical procedure using the tent-like device. According to the invention, an isolation device for providing a sterile operation chamber above a skin region of a patient is provided, in particular for performing a surgical procedure, said isolation device comprising an inflatable bag coupled to a support frame, the support frame having a transport configuration and an operation configuration, wherein in the transport configuration, the first inflatable bag is confined, such as to have compact dimensions; in the operation configuration, the first inflatable bag is extended, such as to form said sterile operation chamber.

Abstract: A device for introducing sterile instruments into an operation chamber or an instrument chamber comprises an introduction frame, a first roller and a second roller rotatable around their respective longitudinal axis and attached to the introduction frame such that the longitudinal axis of the first roller and the longitudinal axis of the second roller are parallel and the first roller and the second roller are movable along an axis extending perpendicular to their respective longitudinal axis. A distance between the first roller and the second roller is defined by a position of a movement of the first and second roller along the axis extending perpendicular to their longitudinal axes. The first and second rollers are biased to contact each other and may be moved along the axis to increase the distance to allow insertion of an instrument through a gap provided by the distance.
