ABSTRACT:
A sterile surgical drape sufficiently wide to circumferentially cover and enclose a non-sterile element such as tubing and a junction between the non-sterile element and a sterile element includes a malleable strip adhered to the inside of the drape, the strip being bent around the non-sterile element that the drape covers. The malleable strip maintains the drape around the non-sterile element so that it will not contaminate a sterile field. The drape may be adhered to a sterile field by means of adhesive strips on the outside of the drape. The drape includes adhesive strips along its side to hold the drape closed about the non-sterile element. The drape may also include a pair of holes so that it may be hung from an IV pole to enclose the IV pole.
