Surgical Drapes

01/01/2021 - "A novel CHG surgical drape was effective in significantly reducing MRSA contamination in an incisional wound model. "
01/01/2020 - "The purpose of this study was to determine the appropriate adhesive layer thickness for optimal peel and shear strength and the smallest peeled area to improve surgical drape wound adhesion. "
11/01/2008 - "Similarly, the incidence of wound contamination was lower with the microbial sealant than with antimicrobial surgical drapes in in-vivo studies. "
09/01/2021 - "Patients in Group S underwent the SAPB before the surgical drape by an anesthesiologist, and in Group I, ICNBs were performed just before the wound closure after S-VATS by an attending thoracic surgeon. "
04/01/2020 - "Their biocompatibility, haemocompatibility, safe degradation, and low-cost production are just a few advantages of these materials that were already used in numerous medical applications (catheters, surgical drapes, wound dressing). "

01/01/2020 - "The graft was harvested either from the skeleton directly in the area of surgical wound or by a mini incision above the harvest site in the area under surgical drapes. "
07/01/2000 - "Test tips were used normally to suction blood and fluid, whereas control tips were placed on the surgical drapes but not in the surgical wound. "
11/01/1998 - "We could obtain intraoperative CT imaging of a patient on the operating table while the surgical wound remained open, the surgical drapes kept in place, and the surgical position unchanged, saving time in intraoperative CT scanning and preparation for further surgery when needed. "
01/01/2021 - "The present investigation reports the efficacy of a novel chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG) adhesive surgical drape to reduce the risk of horizontal bacterial migration into surgical wounds, using a porcine model of wound contamination. "

05/01/1989 - "The rubber dam as a surgical drape: protection against AIDS and hepatitis."

01/01/2022 - "Adhesive surgical drapes are purported to reduce the rates of surgical site infection. "
06/01/2018 - "Does the type of surgical drape (disposable versus non-disposable) affect the risk of subsequent surgical site infection?"
12/04/2015 - "The implementation of a sterile surgical drape as a closed postoperative surgical site dressing has led to a decrease in surgical site infections. The technique is simple and widely available, and should be considered for use to diminish surgical site infections."
