Surgical drape

1. A surgical drape comprising:

a sheet comprising a flexible material and having a first sheet fenestration and one or more areas of a first adhering material, the first adhering material comprising projections or grooves with a height of 500 μm or less;

a removable first panel overlapping the first fenestration, the first panel including a first panel fenestration that is smaller than said first sheet fenestration, the removable first panel further having one or more areas of a second adhering material comprising projections or grooves with a height of 500 μm or less, the second adhering material being complementary to the first adhering material and capable of adhering thereto, the first and second adhering materials being substantially non-adherent to said flexible material;

the areas of the second adhering material configured to overlap the areas of the first adhering material to thereby removably affix said first panel to said sheet;

said first panel comprising one or more areas of a third adhering material on a side of the first panel opposite the second adhering material, said third adhering material comprising projections or grooves with a height of 500 μm or less, and

a removable second panel overlapping the first panel fenestration, the removable second panel having a second panel fenestration that is smaller than said first patent fenestration, the second panel comprising one or more areas of a fourth adhering material comprising projections or grooves with a height of 500 μm

the fourth adhering material being complementary to the third adhering material and capable of adhering thereto, the third and fourth adhering materials being substantially non-adherent to said flexible material

the areas of the fourth adhering material configured to overlap the one or more areas of third adhering material to affix the second panel to the first panel.

2. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the first and second adhering materials are elastomeric.

3. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the protrusions or grooves of the first and second adhering materials have a height of about 1 μm to about 500 μm.

4. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the protrusions or grooves of the first and second adhering materials are substantially free from barbs, hooks, spirals, or loops.

5. The surgical drape of claim 1 , comprising at least one fluid-collection pouch.

6. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the projections of the adhering materials have an average angle of taper of about 5° to about 50°.

7. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the flexible material is a spunbond-meltblown-spunbond material in which a layer of meltblown material is sandwiched between two layers of spunbond materials.

8. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the first and second adhering materials are elastomeric.

9. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the protrusions or grooves of the first and second adhering materials have a height of about 1 μm to about 500 μm.

10. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the protrusions or grooves of the first and second adhering materials are substantially free from barbs, hooks, spirals, or loops.

11. The surgical drape of claim 1 , comprising at least one fluid-collection pouch.

12. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the projections of the adhering materials have an average angle of taper of about 5° to about 50°.

13. The surgical drape of claim 1 , wherein the flexible material is a spunbond-meltblown-spunbond material in which a layer of meltblown material is sandwiched between two layers of spunbond materials.

14. A method comprising:

providing the drape of claim 1 , and

in either order appropriate

positioning said drape over a patient, and

removing said first panel.
