Dukal 20-001 - Surgical Drapes, Fenestrated 18" x 26", Sterile, 1/PK, 50 PK/BX, 6 BX/CS
The Dukal 20-001 Surgical Drapes are sterile, fenestrated drapes measuring 18 x 26 inches. Designed for single use, these drapes provide an effective sterile barrier during surgical and clinical procedures. Each drape features a fenestration, or pre-cut opening, that allows precise exposure of the operative site while protecting surrounding areas. Manufactured to support aseptic techniques, these drapes help maintain a clean surgical field and reduce the risk of infection.
Key Benefits
The sterile fenestrated design provides targeted access to the surgical site while shielding adjacent skin and surfaces. The single-use format minimizes the risk of cross-contamination and supports hospital infection control standards. Its 18 x 26 inch size offers adequate coverage for a wide range of minor to moderate procedures, while the lightweight yet durable material ensures ease of handling and patient comfort.
Compatibility and Applications
The Dukal 20-001 Surgical Drapes are compatible with standard surgical setups and can be used across various specialties, including general surgery, dermatology, orthopedics, and outpatient procedures. They are particularly useful in settings that require quick preparation, such as ambulatory surgical centers, clinics, and emergency departments. The fenestrated opening is ideal for creating a sterile working area without the need for additional modifications.
Usage Guidelines
Inspect the packaging prior to use and do not use if the sterile barrier is compromised. Open the pack using aseptic technique and position the drape over the surgical site, aligning the fenestration with the intended incision area. Secure the drape to maintain coverage throughout the procedure. After use, dispose of the drape according to facility protocols for biohazardous waste. Do not reuse or reprocess.
