Draping Technique for the Small Animal Patient
Four Corner Draping:
The function of draping is to separate the sterile surgical site from contaminated areas of the patient.
Unfolding the Drape
| The drape is unfolded and an edge folded under towards the patient. | ||
| Wrap the corners of the drape around hands. | ||

Placement of Drapes:
| The drape should be floated above the patient and placed in the appropriate position (i.e. do not drag the sterile drape along the patient's contaminated body). | ||
| When applying the drapes make sure the sterile drape is in between the surgeon's sterile gown and the unsterile (undraped) surgical table. | ||
| The drape should only be adjusted minimally once it has been laid onto the patient. If the drape needs to be adjusted it should only be moved in a direction AWAY from the sterile surgical site and NEVER towards the sterile site. | ||

Securing the Drapes:
| Drapes are secured to each other and to the patient's skin with Backhaus towel clamps. | ||
| The towel clamps are tucked underneath the drapes, making sure that they are not lying on the patient's skin. | ||
