Abstract
A disposable surgical drape for use in cardiovascular surgical procedures which may optionally be used to isolate a sterile pumping mechanism from a non-sterile pump driving mechanism and/or provide support for medical equipment, such as medical tubing.
Description
- This application is a continuation of co-pending patent application Ser. No. 09/729,740 filed Dec. 4, 2000, which claims the benefit under Title 35, United States Code, §110(e) of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/168,795 filed on Dec. 2, 1999 and entitled “Surgical Drape and Panel Assembly.”
- I. Field of the Invention
- The present invention relates generally to surgical drapes. More particularly the present invention relates to a posable surgical drape for use in cardiovascular surgical procedures which advantageously maintains sterile and clean conditions at an operation site and may optionally be used to isolate a sterile pumping mechanism from a non-sterile pump driving mechanism and/or provide support for medical equipment used during cardiovascular procedures.
- II. Discussion of the Prior Art
- Surgical drapes are well known in the medical community. Generally speaking, surgical drapes are designed to prevent contamination of the sterilized operative site. The need for surgical drapes stems from the inherent risk for infection during surgical procedures. More specifically, bacteria on the patient's skin and/or from unsterilized equipment may infect the surgical site. In order for the bacteria to infect the wound, it must be transferred by a medium such as airborne particles, fluids, lint, dust particles or skin particles originating from the surgeon or patient or any other staff in the operating theatre.
- A wide variety of surgical drapes have been developed in the prior art to improve sterility at the operative site. In certain applications, multiple drapes are employed to reduce the possibility of infection, including the use of a surgical drape deployed about the head/neck region of the patient. In this fashion, surgical support staff (such as a perfusionist) may be positioned on the non-surgical side of the drape partition while the surgical team operates within the sterile field on the other side of the surgical drape.
- There are two main types of surgical drapes: disposable and reusable. Disposable surgical drapes are typically constructed of multiple layers, with one layer having absorbent properties and another layer that is impervious to fluids. In this fashion, the disposable surgical drape provides both absorbency and a bacterial barrier.
- Reusable surgical drapes are typically constructed of cotton fabric. Cotton surgical drapes are advantageous in that, during a surgical procedure, any spilled fluids will be readily absorbed by the drape. As will be appreciated, this eliminates the fluid as a transport medium for bacteria. However, bacteria may nonetheless pass through the fibers forming the cotton drape, and fibers may become detached from the drape, presenting the possibility for bacteria to enter the operative site. To avoid this problem, the drapes have been constructed from a polyester-cotton mixture treated with a liquid repellant finish. While an improvement, these newer cotton-based surgical drapes were nonetheless flawed in that the finish loses its liquid repellant characteristics over time. Another drawback to cotton-based surgical drapes is that they are predisposed to produce lint, which thereby provides a transport medium for the bacteria. Moreover, the production of lint increases after each use and reuse.
- During surgical procedures, a second drape may be employed as a partition to separate the sterile surgical site from a non-sterile zone outside the field of surgery. When deployed about the patient's head and/or neck, such a drape is referred to as an “anesthesiologist screen” because it separates the non-sterile area where the anesthesiologist sits during surgery from the sterile surgical area below the patient's head and neck. Anesthesiologists typically monitor and seek to control such patient characteristics as blood gas, lung ventilation, body temperature, and evacuation of fluids.
- In cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) procedures, the anesthesiologist is also responsible for establishing and monitoring the bypass circuit. CPB surgery involves the use of a blood pump to remove and return blood from the patient's body through cannulas and tubing placed within the patient's circulatory system. The outflow cannula is connected to a blood pump, such as the one disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 5,746,575 titled “Blood Pump as Centrifugal Pump,” the disclosure of which is hereby expressly incorporated by reference. The blood pump is driven through the use of a motor that is magnetically coupled to the blood pump. Typically, the motor used to drive the blood pump is not sterilizable such that the motor must be positioned outside the sterile surgical field. By placing the blood pump and motor outside the sterile field, long lengths of surgical tubing must be utilized to connect the blood pump to the cannula. This additional medical tubing increases the priming volume of the CPB circuit and may also increase hemolysis based on the exposure to a greater amount of foreign surface area, i.e. the tubing.
- To establish a CPB circuit, medical tubing is passed from the sterile surgical site, under the anesthesiologist screen, for connection to the blood pump and motor driving unit located in the non-sterile region. The anesthesiologist must de-air the system to ensure no air emboli will form in the patient's blood system. After de-airing the system, the tubing is connected to a blood pump, which the anesthesiologist controls with an associated pump control and monitoring system. Throughout the entire procedure, the surgeon must relay control commands to the anesthesiologist and rely upon these communications. The surgeon is typically unable to view the pump or control panel at any time during the procedure.
- The CPB circuit described above, while very common in use, is nonetheless flawed in several significant ways. First, this prior art CPB circuit is undesirable because it increases the amount of foreign material that the blood is in contact with, thereby increasing the likelihood of hemolysis. This is due to the need to place the blood pump and motor outside the sterile surgical field. The blood must also be further treated with heparin to reduce the natural clotting that occurs as the result of contact between the blood and the foreign material of the CPB circuit. Another significant drawback of the CPB system of the prior art is that the pump and motor are necessarily placed outside the sterile surgical field (due to the inability to sterilize the motor). With the pump and motor outside sterile surgical field and thus outside the surgeon's field of view, a second person must be present within the operating room to monitor and control the pump and driving motor. This disadvantageously clutters the operating room. Moreover, the information displayed on the CPB equipment must be relayed to the surgeon, thereby further complicating the procedure.
- The present invention is directed at overcoming, or at least reducing the effects of, one or more of the problems set forth above.
- The present invention addresses the shortcomings of the prior art surgical drapes by providing a sterile barrier having a support panel particularly adapted for use in cardiovascular procedures. The surgical drape and panel assembly advantageously provides the ability to position a sterile blood pump within the sterile surgical field, thereby reducing the CPB circuit and freeing up valuable space around the head and neck region of the patient. This allows the perfusionist more room to perform their work.
- The present invention generally relates to a surgical drape having a mechanism for disposing a blood pump therethrough or about. The surgical drape has defined sections, which allow the surgeon to pass a sterile pump drive cable therethrough, thereby isolating the non-sterile driving mechanism (i.e. motor) from the sterile pump assembly located within the surgical field. Further, the drape may include areas specifically designed to be placed between the coupling between the sealed pumping mechanism and the driving motor.
- By utilizing the present invention, the surgeon may place the sterile pump closer to the surgical site, thereby reducing the amount of foreign tubing that is necessary to connect the blood pump to the cannulas placed within the patient's vascular system. A further advantage of the invention is that the pump, driving mechanism, and control panel may be located at a distance closer to the surgeon, thereby enabling the surgeon to view the information more readily. The driving mechanism and control panel may be located near the patient's head, thereby allowing the perfusionist closer monitoring of the pump system and the patient's vital signs.
- In one embodiment of the present invention, the surgical drape is designed such that it is to be disposed adjacent to the patient's head region. The surgical drape is sufficiently thin so as to allow the surgeon to couple a sterile blood pump to a non-sterile driving mechanism without interfering with the clamping mechanism.
- In another embodiment the surgical drape further contains apertures which allow sterile materials to be passed through from the surgical site, to the non sterile surgical site adjacent to the patient's head area. Thereby allowing a sterile pump to be placed closer to the surgical site while the non-sterile driving mechanism is placed outside the sterile surgical field. Thus further reducing the amount of foreign tubing used to connect the blood pump to the patient's vascular system.
- In another embodiment, the surgical drape further comprises a rigid panel disposed about the head/neck region of the patient, whereby the panel is adapted to receive a blood pump and associate tubing during a surgical procedure.
- In another embodiment the surgical drape of the present invention further comprises a clear viewing portion thereby allowing the surgeon/anesthesiologist look through the drape instead of having to move around the drape.
- In another embodiment, the rigid panel structure further contains connectors for various medical devices utilized during a surgical procedure. Thus, by utilizing the panel and the connections contained thereon the surgeon is better able to organize the surgical field.

- Illustrative embodiments of the invention are described below. In the interest of clarity, not all features of an actual implementation are described in this specification. It will of course be appreciated that in the development of any such actual embodiment, numerous implementation-specific decisions must be made to achieve the developers' specific goals, such as compliance with system-related and business-related constraints, which will vary from one implementation to another. Moreover, it will be appreciated that such a development effort might be complex and time-consuming, but would nevertheless be a routine undertaking for those of ordinary skill in the art having the benefit of this disclosure.
- Referring now to the drawings, there is shown a preferred embodiment of a surgical drape in accordance with the present invention. The drape is particularly suited for use during cardiovascular procedures where a blood pump is utilized or for any other surgical procedures utilizing coupled devices that consist of sterile and non-sterile portions.
- As illustrated in FIG. 1,
surgical drape 10 is generally rectangular and is formed of a flexible material of sufficient size such thatsurgical drape 10 may be utilized as a screen between the surgical field and the anesthesiologist.Surgical drape 10 comprises offirst surface 15 andsecond surface 17. During use,first surface 15 is disposed facing the sterile surgical zone andsecond surface 17 faces the non-sterile area. - As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3,
surgical drape 10 may further contain aperture(s) 25 disposed therethrough. In use,aperture 25 may be used to pass surgical devices through the drape from the sterile surgical side to the non-sterile area. As illustrated in FIG. 1, the physician can pass tubing throughaperture 25, which may then be connected to a blood pump located outside the sterile field. Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 3, a sterilepump drive cable 230 can be passed throughaperture 25 and connected to a motor (not shown) within the non-sterile surgical field and apump 200 located within the sterile surgical field. - As shown in FIG. 2,
aperture 25 may further contain asterile sleeve 60, which may be disposed about a medical device that is passed through theaperture 25. Thesterile sleeve 60 may by utilized where a sterile device has been passed through to the non sterile side, thereby rendering it non-sterile, though at some time during the procedure it may be necessary to move the device from the non-sterile side back into the sterile surgical field. In order to do so,sleeve 60 may be disposed about the device so that the non-sterile device is encapsulated within the interior ofsleeve 60. Therefore, the non-sterile device may be brought back into the sterile surgical field because thesleeve 60 protected the device from contamination while in the non-sterile field. - As illustrated in FIG. 2,
aperture 25 andsleeve 60 are initially covered bymembrane 40, which is attached to thefirst surface 15 orsecond surface 17 ofdrape 10.Membrane 40 may be disposed aboutaperture 25 such thatmembrane 40 reinforces the edges of theaperture 25. This reinforcement provides further protections against tearing or abrasion aboutaperture 25 anddrape 10. Prior to usingaperture 25, the user must firstopen aperture 25 by tearing theperforations 41 that are disposed within thesurgical drape 10. Theperforations 41 facilitate the controlled tearing of the drape when desired. -
Surgical drape 10, which may compromise any flexible disposable woven, non-woven, or plastic material, has afirst surface 15 andsecond surface 17. As used within this disclosure, it should be understood that thesecond surface 17 will be in contact with the patient's body ifdrape 10 is utilized to cover the patient's body during surgical procedures. Alternatively, ifdrape 10 is utilized as a screen between the patient's body and the anesthesiologist/perfusionist, then it should be understood that thesecond surface 17 will be facing the anesthesiologist as illustrated in FIG. 1, while thefirst surface 15 ofdrape 10 will face away from the anesthesiologist.Drape 10 is preferably constructed of a non woven material which has been treated to make it repellent to liquids such as water, alcohol, blood, saline, or any other fluid that may be encountered during a surgical procedure.Surgical drape 10 may be formed of a single piece of material or may be formed of a plurality of pieces that are permanently bonded together. Alternatively, the surgical drape of this invention may be formed of multiple layers. - As shown in FIG. 5, the
first layer 11 is permeable and allows fluid to pass therethrough. Thesecond layer 12 is constructed of an absorbent material which absorbs the fluid that is allowed to pass through thefirst layer 11. Thethird layer 13 is constructed of an impervious material, therefore any fluids that come into contact with the drape during a surgical procedure will be absorbed by thesecond layer 12 of thedrape 10 and not contact the skin of the patient. Alternatively, thesurgical drape 10 of the present invention may be formed of two layers (not shown). An upperabsorbent layer 12 and a lowerimpermeable layer 13 thereby lessening the cost of manufacture and the overall bulk of the drape. - As illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 3, in use,
surgical drape 10 may be utilized as a screen between the head and neck region of the patient. As mentioned previously,surgical drape 10 is particularly suited for use in cardiovascular procedures and is preferably sufficiently long, not only to be utilized as an anesthesia screen but also to cover the body of the patient. As illustrated in FIG. 3, asterile blood pump 200 may be placed within the sterile operating field while theflexible drive 230 cable is passed through theaperture 25 and connected to a motor 250 (not shown) disposed on the non-sterile side. This arrangement is particularly useful in that it allows a sterile pump to be placed within the surgical field, thereby lessening the priming volume of the bypass circuit. - With combined reference to FIGS. 3 and 8-10
surgical drape 10 may further comprisepanel 70.Panel 70 is adapted to be disposed adjacent to or about the patient's head during surgical procedures.Panel 70 is adapted to receive and retain ablood pump 200, a blood reservoir (not shown), a blood filter (not shown), or ablood oxygenator 300, either singly or in any combination thereof. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7,blood pump assembly 280 comprises asterile pump 200 and anon-sterile motor 250. Thenon-sterile motor 250 containsbore 255 dimensioned to receive thesterile pump 200. - As shown in FIG. 7,
panel 70 containsannular groove 73 dimensioned to receivecoupling member 256. Couplingmember 256 extends from the first end 251 ofmotor 250 and is dimensioned to be received withinannular groove 73 ofpanel 70 and align bore 255 ofmotor 250 andaperture 75 ofpanel 70. When assembled,motor 250 is adjacentsecond surface 72 ofpanel 70, thereby isolating thenon-sterile motor 250 from the sterile surgical field. In use, thedistal end 210 of thepump 200 is inserted throughaperture 75 ofpanel 70 and bore 255 ofmotor 250.Panel 70 may further comprise asterile sleeve 60 disposed aboutaperture 75. If thesterile pump 200 must be removed and placed within the non-sterile field,sleeve 60 is disposed aboutsterile pump 200. Thesleeve 60 protects thesterile pump 200 from contamination within the non-sterile field, thereby allowing thepump 200 to be replaced within the sterile field after removal. - In an alternative embodiment illustrated in FIG. 8,
panel 70 may further containfittings 90. One such use forfittings 90 is to make a connection between a blood suction/cell saver apparatus and the surgical field. Orfittings 90 may be utilized to supply compressed carbon dioxide, oxygen, or saline to the sterile surgical site. These exemplary illustrations should not be construed as to limit the function of thefittings 90.Fittings 90 may be utilized for many other applications not illustrated. As shown in FIG. 8,panel 70 may further compriseflexible arm 100 having afirst end 105 and asecond end 107. Thefirst end 105 ofarm 100 is adapted to be received bypanel 70. Thesecond end 107 ofarm 100 is adapted to receive a surgical device.Arm 100 is sufficiently stiff therefore allowing the surgeon to adjust the location of thesecond end 107 of thearm 100 relative to the surgical site. As illustrated in FIG. 8panel 70 may be attached topanel support 78.Panel support 78 is adapted to be inserted under the patient's shoulders and to receivepanel 70, thereby disposingpanel 70 about the patient's neck and head region. - As shown in FIG. 9,
panel 70 may further compriseoxygenator 300 coupled tofirst surface 71 ofpanel 70.Oxygenator 300 comprisesfluid inlet 305 andfluid outlet 310.Fluid inlet 305 is in fluid communication withpump 200, thereby providing a compact bypass circuit within the sterile surgical field.Panel 70 provides a further benefit by moving thepump 200 andoxygenator 300 off of the surgical table, thereby freeing valuable space within the surgical field. An additional benefit of the arrangement as shown is that the surgeon may easily view the bypass circuit at any time during the procedure. - As shown in FIGS.3,9-10,
drape 10 may be coupled topanel 70 thereby providing anassembly 350 that separates the sterile field from the non-sterile field.Assembly 350 allowspump 200,oxygenator 300, and other medical devices to be placed within the sterile surgical field thereby decreasing the overall priming volume of the bypass circuit.Assembly 350 further allows materials and/or devices to be passed between the sterile field and the non-sterile field.Panel 70 is constructed of a biocompatible material such as plastic or metal. In one embodiment,panel 70 is manufactured of a transparent or semitransparent material, thereby allowing the perfusionist/anesthesiologist or surgeon to see through the panel. - While this invention has been described for use in cardiovascular surgery, this does not limit the applications of this invention for the use cardiopulmonary bypass surgery only. The invention herein disclosed can be utilized in other applications apparent to those skilled in the art.
- It will be apparent by those skilled in the art that changes could be made to the embodiments described above without departing form the broad inventive concepts thereof. It is understood, therefore, that this invention is not limited to the particular embodiments disclosed, but is intended to cover modifications within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the appended claims.
