Surgical Drape 75x90 cm Disposable and Sterile

The Disposable and Sterile 75x90 cm Surgical Drape has been designed to meet the specific needs of surgical procedures. Made of resistant and high quality material, it guarantees an optimal barrier against fluids and bacteria, significantly reducing the risk of contamination of the operating field. The dimensions of 75x90 cm make it practical and versatile for a wide variety of interventions, ensuring adequate coverage of the surfaces to be insulated. Being a disposable product, it promotes compliance with the most stringent hygiene standards, completely eliminating the possibility of cross-contamination between patients.

Designed for simple and effective distribution, the surgical drape is easily manipulated during the preparation and application phases on the patient or on the instruments, improving the efficiency of healthcare personnel. Its sterile nature derives from a rigorous sterilization process, which allows it to be used directly in the operating room without the need for further treatments. Once used, it is disposed of according to current regulations, eliminating the risks of reuse or improper storage which can compromise the safety of staff and patients.

The use of disposable surgical drapes contributes in a concrete way to the rational management of hospital resources, reducing the costs related to the sanitization of reusable textiles and allowing efficient planning of stocks. The absence of traditional textile fibers also limits the formation of dust and the dispersion of particulates, an important factor in highly protected sterile environments. Thanks to its particular characteristics of resistance, waterproofness and softness, it adheres perfectly to surfaces maintaining stability for the entire duration of the intervention.

Therapeutic Indications

The Disposable Surgical Drape 75x90 cm is expressly indicated for setting up sterile operating fields in any type of surgical procedure, both in hospital and outpatient settings. It is used to isolate the surgical area surrounding the incision site, preventing contamination of both the wound and the instruments used during the operation. Its dimensions make it suitable for multiple uses: from general to specialist surgery, allowing the creation of individualized barriers based on the type of intervention and the anatomical district involved.

Particularly recommended in all cases where sterility must be maximized, the drape offers protection even in minor invasive maneuvers, advanced dressings or minor surgical procedures. It is suitable for covering surfaces, equipment and all elements that must remain aseptic, including areas where catheters, drains or other access routes to the patient are placed. Furthermore, it represents an elective choice where rapid set-up between various procedures is required, thanks to its ease of use and the practicality of opening and positioning.

The ability to offer a physical barrier between the patient and the environment significantly reduces the possibility of post-operative infections, making it a valuable tool in both scheduled and emergency interventions. Its extensive use is recommended not only in the operating room but also in emergency departments, intensive care and areas at high risk of contamination.

Composition

The 75x90 cm disposable surgical drape is made of high-quality non-woven material, generally composed of interwoven polypropylene fibres. This material is chosen for its high liquid impermeability properties and ability to act effectively as a bacterial barrier. The surface of the sheet is designed to be soft to the touch but resistant to tears and perforations, ensuring optimal comfort for both the patient and the healthcare personnel who handle it.

The absence of latex or other allergenic substances in its composition makes it safe even for patients with specific sensitivities. The materials used are suitable for contact with the skin and compatible with the regulations in force relating to medical devices.

Each sheet is individually packaged in protective packaging, sealed to ensure maximum sterility until use. The packaging allows all the barrier properties of the sheet and the quality of the material to be kept unchanged until use.

Contraindications

There are no specific contraindications to the use of disposable surgical drapes in standard procedures, if applied according to the correct methods. However, use is not recommended in subjects with particular allergies to plastic materials, if sensitive to synthetic polypropylene fibres, although reported cases of adverse contact reactions are extremely rare.

It is contraindicated to reuse the sheet after the first application, as the loss of sterility would compromise the protective function and could encourage the spread of contaminants. Do not use the product if the packaging is damaged or the integrity is visibly compromised: in these conditions, the level of protection offered cannot be guaranteed.

Not suitable for applications other than medical-surgical ones, it is recommended not to use as a protective barrier in industrial or domestic scenarios or for purposes other than those intended by the manufacturer. If skin redness, itching or other abnormal reactions occur, discontinue use immediately and subject the patient to clinical evaluation.

Safety of the drug for the species

The 75x90 cm disposable surgical drape is designed to be used with the maximum level of safety in all animal species and human patients, being a device free of pharmacological agents or active substances that can interact with the organism. Safety is guaranteed both by the biocompatible material and by the sterilization process certified according to international standards. The absence of toxic, irritating or sensitizing components provides a high tolerability profile both in the short and long term during interventions.

The waterproof barrier of the sheet ensures that any biological fluids do not pass through the surface, protecting the patient and healthcare personnel from accidental contact with blood and body secretions. The resistance and safety tests conducted on the materials constituting the sheet are aimed at guaranteeing their suitability for direct contact with the skin and the standards required in operating rooms, avoiding risks of contamination or damage during handling.

To ensure maximum safety, the sheet must not be reused and must be correctly disposed of as special medical waste after use.

Precautions

Before applying the surgical drape, make sure that the package is intact and stored according to the instructions, in a dry place away from light. Handle the drape wearing sterile gloves so as not to compromise the sterility guaranteed by the packaging, avoiding any contact with potentially contaminated surfaces before it is placed on the patient or instruments. At each use, the integrity of the sheet must be checked to prevent the use of defective or already torn products.

It is important to dispose of the cloth immediately after use in the appropriate containers for medical waste to avoid any potential risk of environmental contamination. It is advisable to maintain adequate stocks in the warehouse so that each surgical procedure can be conducted without risks related to shortages of sterile material. In case of particular environmental conditions, such as high humidity or extreme temperatures, it is recommended to store the product in controlled warehouses to avoid alterations to the physical properties or packaging.

Do not use the cover if there are visible signs of damage or alteration, or if the expiry date (indicated on the packaging) has passed.

Method of administration

The disposable surgical drape should be used exclusively for covering and isolating surfaces and patients during medical or surgical procedures. After checking the integrity of the package, open the packaging using a sterile technique and remove the sheet with equally sterile hands or instruments. Place it carefully on the area to be treated, making sure that the surface is completely covered by the sheet, without leaving unprotected spaces.

During application, avoid folds or wrinkles that could compromise the stability and barrier effectiveness of the sheet itself. If necessary, the sheet can be cut or adapted to cover specific areas, always following good asepsis standards. At the end of the intervention, the sheet must be immediately removed and disposed of, minimizing any risk of contamination for staff and the surrounding environment.

Treatment program

The disposable surgical drape should be used whenever a sterile barrier is required during an operation or invasive maneuver, according to the needs of the medical team. In the case of multiple procedures, each operation must include the use of a new and sterile drape, avoiding reuse even in the case of short breaks between one procedure and another. In particularly dynamic clinical contexts, such as the emergency room or emergency surgeries, it is recommended to always have sheets ready to hand, so as to be able to guarantee maximum protection of the operating field in a short time.

The application of the drape is an integral part of the patient's preparation protocol for surgery or other invasive interventions. Once use is finished, the sheet must be collected in special bags for medical waste and disposed of according to current legislation. The management program for disposable materials must include periodic stock checks and precise planning to avoid shortages or unforeseeable stockouts in the departments.

Target species

The disposable and sterile 75x90 cm surgical drape is mainly intended for use on human and animal patients in hospitals, outpatient clinics, veterinary practices and any environment where optimal sterile conditions are required for carrying out surgical operations or invasive medical procedures.
