Drape

Surgical drapes are sterile sheets of material used to cover a patient's body during surgery. They create a clean and safe environment by isolating the surgical site from contaminants. These drapes help maintain sterility, reduce the risk of infection, and provide a barrier between the surgical team and the patient.

Types of Surgical Drapes (Categorized by Material)

Cotton Surgical Drapes:

Cotton drapes are highly absorbent and soft, making them ideal for general surgical procedures. They are breathable and comfortable but may not be as durable as other materials.

Polyester Surgical Drapes:

Polyester drapes are strong, durable, and resistant to tearing. They are often used for longer surgeries and are preferred for their strength and flexibility.
