Description
A top drape is a sterile sheet that is placed over the patient’s upper body during surgery to cover their chest and abdomen. It is also used to create a barrier between the patient’s skin and the surgical field.
Top drapes are typically made of disposable, non-woven fabric that is water-resistant and fluid-proof. They may also have a built-in cuff that helps to keep them in place.
Top drapes are used in a variety of surgical procedures, including:
