ABSTRACT:
A headframe drape for use during stereotaxic procedures, and a method for using the same, is described. The drape is designed to be inexpensive and easy to use. The drape comprises a single rectangular body having first and second connection portions on either side thereof, the first connection portion having hook material thereon and the second connection portion having loop material thereon. The first and second connection portions may be secured together using the hook and loop material, so that a headframe, base ring, or both a headframe and base ring may be secured and adjusted to any desirable degree during a stereotaxic procedure. The drape may be placed at the crown of a patient's head and draped down over the patient's ears, at which point a base ring or headframe, or both, may be placed over the patient's head, and the first and second connection portions secured together using the hook and loop material in order to adjust and secure the base ring or headframe, or both, in a position relative to the patient's head.
