Abstract: A surgical robot drape for enveloping a joint of a surgical robot, the joint configured to permit axial rotation of a part of a robot arm adjacent the joint about a joint axis, the drape comprising a proximal drape material portion configured to provide a sterile barrier over, and to be rotationally fast with, a part of the robot proximal of the joint, and a distal drape material portion configured to provide a sterile barrier over, and to be rotationally fast with, a part of the robot distal of the joint; the drape being configured such that the proximal and distal drape material portions are freely rotatable relative to one another about the joint axis.

Abstract: A surgical robot drape for providing a sterile barrier over a portion of a surgical robot, the drape comprising a plurality of accessibility portions spaced apart from one another in the drape for providing selective access through the drape at the respective locations of the accessibility portions, each accessibility portion comprising a separation line joining neighbouring portions of the drape and being configured to permit the separation of the neighbouring portions of the drape about the separation line for allowing access through an opening thereby formed in the drape.
