A surgical drape includes a first, closed container within which a first sheet is disposed. The first sheet has first and second opposed ends, the first end of the first sheet being removable from the container so as to remove a desired portion of the first sheet from the container, the second end of the first sheet remaining within the container. Preferably, the first container is laid across a desired portion of the table prior to placing the patient on the table. After the patient has been positioned properly and prepped, the first sheet can be pulled from underneath the patient and pulled out of the first container so that the sheet covers the table in the area of surgical interest and then covers the entire side or end of the table down to the floor. After the surgical procedure has been completed, the first sheet and the container can be removed and discarded. Desirably, the surface of the container in contact with the table is provided with adhesive that will prevent undesired movement of the container relative to either the table or the patient. If desired, the edges of the first sheet can be provided with adhesive surfaces, or possibly hook and loop fasteners, in order to secure the edges of the first sheet to selected portions of the operating table. Alternative embodiments include a second sheet that can be used to cover other portions of the operating table and a third sheet that can be used to cover portions of the patient during pre-operation preparations.

A medical-electronic body fluid accounting system for use in surgical procedures and in post-operative and non-surgical care to afford a running account of the fluid intake to a patient and fluid outtake therefrom. The system is provided with a microcomputer to which is applied digital data derived from a plurality of fluid input source channels and fluid output source channels which together represent the prevailing fluid input and output sources associated with the patient. Included in the input source channels are those monitoring the flow of fluids being fed intraveneously into the patient, each such input channel having a sensor which generates a signal representing the volume of a particular fluid, such as a saline solution, being infused into the patient, this signal being converted into a corresponding digital value. Included in the output source channels is one having a sensor generating a signal representing the amount of fluid discharged through a urinary or other catheter, and another generating a signal representing the amount of exudate drawn from the surgical site, and still another to measure the amount of blood taken from the patient by sponges. On the basis of data acquired by the input and output channels, the computer yields a fluid intake total and a fluid outtake total, which totals are displayed to indicate the prevailing fluid balance.

A surgical instrument organizer for holding surgical instruments on a horizontal surface includes an elongate strip having opposed front and rear walls, end walls, an upper portion, and a lower portion, and a support member in engagement with the strip, the support member in use maintaining the front and rear walls generally perpendicular to the horizontal surface. The upper portion is defined by a plurality of notches, the notches being of a size and shape to receive surgical instruments and maintain them in a propped-up, spaced-apart position. In the preferred embodiment, each of the notches is generally V-shaped, with each notch being about 0.875 inch deep and having side walls that terminate in points spaced about 0.375 inch from each other. Preferably the foam is made of crosslinked, closed-cell polyolefin. The support member can be provided in a variety of forms, including spaced stands, an elongate block, and an open-ended surgical tray. It is expected that the strip will be sufficiently inexpensive that it can be discarded after first use.

A tissue marking implant includes a matrix material and a dye marker. The implant, which can be formed entirely of bioresorbable material such as a collagen foam, is sized and shaped to replace excised tissue. The implant supports surrounding tissue upon implantation, while allowing for in-growth of fibrous tissue to replace the implant. According to various alternative embodiments, the implant is elastically compressible, or can be formed from self-expanding foam or sponges, and can be implanted through a cannula or by injection, as well as by open procedures. The implant can carry therapeutic and diagnostic substances. The dye marker leaches from the implant such that a surgeon, upon subsequent surgical intervention, visibly recognizes the tissue marked by the dye marker.

A method of partial breast radiation therapy includes placing within a breast cavity a substantially radio-opaque implant constructed of biocompatible material, said substantially radio-opaque implant supporting the tissue surrounding the breast cavity; and directing a radiation beam to said substantially radio-opaque implant serving as a target for delivery of radiation therapy to margins around the breast cavity, such that the radiation beam does not materially irradiate the whole of the breast.
