Abstract:
A surgical barrier used on a patient during an operating procedure. Wherein the barrier includes a drape, having a patient and doctor side; and valve, located on the drape, for maintaining a barrier between the patient and doctor side while a surgical instrument extends therethrough. The surgical barrier also has a reservoir, located adjacent the valve, for holding a solution therein. Additionally, the reservoir includes a pore for expelling the solution onto the surgical instrument located on the patient side. Moreover, the reservoir includes a refill device for refilling the reservoir with solution. The reservoir has a hollow walled ring shape that is formed circumfrentially around the valve. The hollow walled ring defines a cavity therebetween. The valve is specifically located within the cavity adjacent the doctor side of the drape.
