Definitions

  • the invention refers to an operation drape combined of several sheets, including an absorbing sheet and fluid barrier sheet, and which drape is to be taped to the skin of a patient along an area of surgical.
  • the drape In order to safely eliminate transmission of infection or contaminations during the operation, operation drapes are used of the kind described above.
  • the drape often includes two sheets of absorbing material having a fluid barrier between. In this way two objects are achieved, namely absorbation of fluid and a fluid barrier in the same product.
  • a known way of achieving these objects is to put together nonwoven plastic film and excelsior tissue into a laminate. All these substances are thus of disposable type.
  • Another known and still useful method is to place a thin plastic film between two fabric sheets.
  • the present invention provides an operation drape having the features stated in the enclosed claims, which is easy to fix fluidtight to the skin and which has one sheet, which absorbs
  • the operation drape according to the invention partly is reusable and partly recoverable.
  • the drape is thus in two sheets and they can be separated from each other and be reused and be recovered respectively.
  • Reusable products have not only good environmental influence but are also more economical by that they can be used several times and also by that the probable future destruction fee which will burden the price of the products, can be devided on a large amount of applications. Two embodiments of the invention will be described in the following by reference to enclosed drawings .
  • Fig. 1 illustrates a schematic view of an operation drape according a first embodiment of the invention viewed on the side, which shall be placed on the skin.
  • Fig. 2 illustrates schematically a sideview of the operation drape according to fig. 1.
  • Fig. 3 illustrates in the same way as fig. 1 a second embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 4 illustrates schematically a sideview of the embodiment according to fig. 3.
  • the operation drape is rectangular, in one end of which there is an attachment area 1, by which the drape is fastened to the skin.
  • a plastic film 2 follows behind the attachment area 1, which plastic film is fluid tight and relatively thin and is placed to the skin and follows it well when the drape is used.
  • a sheet 3 which consists of fluid absorbing textile, is arranged on a plastic film 2.
  • the drape is shown upside down in fig. 2 in relation to the position when the drape is applied to the skin.
  • the two sheets 2 and 3 are preferably attached to a self-adhering tape 4 forming a first attachment area 5 for the sheet 2 and a second attachment area 6 for the sheet 3.
  • the two attachment areas 5 and 6 are thus in the form of two parallel strips which are close to and parallel with the attachment area 1 of the tape 4.
  • the attachment area 1 is preferably covered by a strip which can be teared off.
  • fig. 2 shows the operation drape before it is used and the attachment area 1 is to the right, which is covered by a protecting strip (not shown) , to the left of attachment area 1 is a plastic film attached along a strip area 5 and thereafter further to the left is the fabric attached to a strip formed area 6.
  • the protecting strip is teared off and the attachment area underneath the strip is pressed to the skin close to the operation area.
  • the plastic sheet is hereby applied to the skin and the tape 4 stops the fluid to penetrate inbetween the skin and the plastic film from the operation area.
  • the fabric layer 3 which absorbs fluid is thus upon the plastic sheet and is attached to the tape 4. Fluid which flows over the tape 4 and over the attachment area 1 will flow along the tape and will then be absorbed to the most by the layer 3. The fluid will not come into contact with the skin because this will be prevented by the fluidtight plastic layer under the absorbing layer 3.
  • a simple way to assemble the operation drape is to use a self- adhering tape 4.
  • the tape could be covered by three strips, each one of which corresponds to one of the attachment areas 1, 5 and 6 respectively.
  • the protecting strip which covers the attachment area 6 is first teared off and the layer 3 is attached, whereafter a protecting strip, which covers the attachment area 5 is teared off so that the plastic sheet can be attached.
  • the strip covering the attachment area 1 remains.
  • the self-adhering tape 4 is preferably a thin flexible tape in the form of e.g. non-woven fabric charged with an adhesive which does not cure.
  • the protecting strips are treated in a known way so that they adhere very little to the attachment areas and they can therefore be taken away without effecting the adherence ability.
  • a second embodiment is shown in fig. 3 and 4 and consists of a plastic film being the barrier layer.
  • An absorbing layer 3 is layed on the plastic film as earlier described in connection with the first embodiment of the invention.
  • the two layers 2 and 3 are detachably connected to each other by means of a strip 7 of adhesive which is applied along one edge of the plastic film.
  • the strip of adhesive is one which does not cure completely, which allows the two layers to be separated after the operation drape has been used.
  • the strip of adhesive 8 is protected by a detachable protecting strip 9 when the operation drape is not used.
  • the operation drape according to the second embodiment is assembled by that two ribbons of not completely curing adhesive are charged on the plastic film 2 along one edge, one ribbon on each one of the two sides of the plastic film 2.
  • the two ribbons are thereafter covered by a protecting strip and when the fabric layer 3 later on is to be applied to the plastic film, one of the protecting strips is taken away.
  • the second protecting strip 9 which is on the side of the plastic film, which is to be placed on to the skin, remains as long as the operation drape is stored. Just before the operation drape is to be used said protecting strip 9 is taken away and the operation drape is taped to the skin adjacent the operation area.
  • the two layers have separated attachment areas but these can be arranged edge to edge detachable from the tape 4 but it is important that there are two layers of which one is a plastic film layer to be placed on the skin. It is also important that the plastic film is safely fastened to the skin so that there is no leakage in under the plastic film.
  • the two layers 2 and 3 shall be detachably connected to each other so that the operation drape is partly reusable and partly recoverable. This means that the absorbing layer 3 is reusable while the layer 2 is recoverable because it is a plastic.
  • the tape 4 is however practically not reusable or recoverable.

Abstract

Les champs opératoires connus peuvent comporter plusieurs couches, dont l'une est une couche absorbant les fluides et l'autre une couche imperméable aux fluides. Ces champs sont fixés à la peau à proximité de la zone du site d'intervention, afin d'éliminer la transmission des infections ou des contaminations pendant l'opération. Pour améliorer les champs opératoires connus, pour qu'il soit facile de les fixer à la peau de façon étanche à l'eau et pour que l'on puisse empêcher les fluides d'atteindre la peau et, également, pour les rendre partiellement réutilisables et partiellement récupérables, les champs opératoires faisant l'objet de cette invention se composent de deux couches, qui sont reliées le long d'un bord par une zone d'attache. Une seconde zone d'attache est diposée parallèle à la première, afin de réaliser sa fixation à la peau, de sorte que la couche faisant barrière aux fluides vienne se placer sur la peau et la couche absorbante vienne se placer sur cette couche faisant barrière aux fluides.
