Multi-site surgical drape apparatus
A patient support for use with a foundation frame is disclosed. The foundation frame includes a first column and a second column. The patient support includes a base beam, a leg support, and a guide. The base beam is coupleable to the foundation frame to be supported by the first column and the second column. The leg support has a first end pivotably coupled to the base beam and a second end spaced apart from the first end. The, guide is coupled to the base beam and to the second end of the leg support. The guide is configured to guide the second end of the leg support along an arcuate path when the leg support pivots relative to the base beam.
1. A surgical drape comprising
a main sheet section formed to include an opening sized to provide access through the main sheet for two surgical sites, the main sheet section being adapted to wrap completely around a torso of a patient,
a first pull-away sheet section coupled to the main sheet section, the first pull-away sheet section secured in position over a first portion of the opening and coupled to the main sheet section by break-away means for securing the first pull-away sheet section in place relative to the main sheet section until a user pulls the first pull-away sheet section away from the main sheet section along a first fold line that extends in a direction parallel with a long dimension of the patient's torso when the main sheet section is wrapped around the patient's torso to expose the first portion of the opening thereby accessing a first surgical site, and
a second pull-away sheet section coupled to the main sheet section, the second pull-away sheet section secured in position over a second portion of the opening and coupled to the main sheet section by break-away means for securing the second pull-away sheet section in place relative to the main sheet section until a user pulls the second pull-away sheet section away from the main sheet section along a second fold line that extends in a direction parallel with the long dimension of the patient's torso when the main sheet section is wrapped around the patient's torso to expose the second portion of the opening thereby accessing a second surgical site.

5. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the break-away means for securing the second pull-away sheet section in place relative to the main sheet section comprises strips of adhesive.
6. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the break-away means for securing the first pull-away sheet section in place relative to the main sheet section comprises stitching.
7. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the break-away means for securing the second pull-away sheet section in place relative to the main sheet section comprises stitching.
8. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the first portion of the opening comprises half of the opening and the second portion of the opening comprises half of the opening.
9. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the main sheet section is devoid of any fold lines that extend in a direction perpendicular to the long dimension of the patient's torso when the main sheet section is wrapped around the patient's torso.
10. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the first pull-away sheet section is devoid of any fold lines that extend in a direction perpendicular to the long dimension of the patient's torso when the main sheet section is wrapped around the patient's torso.
11. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the second pull-away sheet section is devoid of any fold lines that extend in a direction perpendicular to the long dimension of the patient's torso when the main sheet section is wrapped around the patient's torso.
12. A surgical drape comprising
a main sheet section formed to include an opening sized to provide access through the main sheet for at least two surgical sites, the main sheet section being adapted to wrap completely around a torso of a patient,
a first pull-away sheet section that extends from a top edge of the main sheet section and is folded over the main sheet section to cover a first portion of the opening, the top edge of the main sheet section extending in a direction parallel with a long dimension of the patient's torso when the main sheet section is wrapped around the patient's torso, and
a second pull-away sheet section that extends from a bottom edge, opposite the top edge, of the main sheet section and is folded over the main sheet section to cover a second portion of the opening, the bottom edge of the main sheet section extending in a direction parallel with the long dimension of the patient's torso when the main sheet section is wrapped around the patient's torso.
13. The surgical drape of claim 12 , wherein the first pull-away sheet section is secured in position relative to the opening by strips of adhesive and the second pull-away sheet section is secured in position relative to the opening by strips of adhesive.
14. The surgical drape of claim 12 , wherein the first pull-away sheet section is secured in position relative to the opening by stitching and the second pull-away sheet section is secured in position relative to the opening by stitching.
