ABSTRACT:
A folded hospital drape for placing on a patient by operating room personnel has a generally rectangular center section and side sections C-folded inwardly over the center section. The drape is folded and secured to form a narrow drape area for fitting between the legs in the crotch of a patient. Adhesive strips on the flaps and an adhesive strip across the end of the drape are provided for securing the drape to the thighs and abdomen of the patient when the center section and the side sections are spread to form a wide drape area at the end of the drape. The opposite end of the drape is tucked under the patient's buttocks. A cuff section at the top end of the drape is provided so that the hands of the person applying the drape to the patient may be inserted in the cuff to spread the side sections of the drape outwardly from the center section.
