ABSTRACT:
A disposable non-woven drape for use in gynecologic and proctologic examination of female patients. It includes an inexpensive, disposable sheet of non-woven material large enough to provide coverage for the abdomen, perineum and thighs for an adult patient. The distal portion of the drape is incised in such a fashion as to provide sections of the drape. By virtue of gravity, these sections of the drape fall into place and cover the lower abdomen, perineum and thighs, both left and right. This unique invention provides mental comfort, modesty and privacy for the patient and a heightened sense of caring by the physician.
