Patent Images
1. A surgical drape comprising:
- an exterior surface adjacent to a sterile field for performing a surgical procedure;
an interior surface forming a cavity for receiving a non-sterile portion of a robotic surgical system;
an integral cuff including a permanently turned-up fold of the exterior and interior surfaces at an open end of the cavity and a marker on the permanently turned-up fold designating a sterile side and a non-sterile side of the drape; and
an instrument sterile adaptor for engaging a surgical tool and the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system, the sterile adaptor configured to transfer signals between the surgical tool and the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system.

Abstract
A sterile drape, system, and method for draping portions of a telerobotic surgical system are provided. In one embodiment, a sterile drape includes an exterior surface adjacent to a sterile field for performing a surgical procedure, and an interior surface forming a cavity for receiving the non-sterile portion of a robotic surgical system, such as a manipulator. The drape further includes an integral cuff including a permanently turned-up fold of the exterior and interior surfaces at an open end of the cavity and a marker on the permanently turned-up fold designating a sterile side and a non-sterile side of the drape.

11. A robotic surgical system for performing a procedure within a sterile field, the system comprising:
-
a non-sterile portion of a robotic surgical system; and a drape over the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system to shield the sterile field from the non-sterile portion, the drape including; an exterior surface adjacent to the sterile field for performing a surgical procedure; an interior surface forming a cavity for receiving the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system; an integral cuff including a permanently turned-up fold of the exterior and interior surfaces at an open end of the cavity and a marker on the permanently turned-up fold designating a sterile side and a non-sterile side of the drape; and an instrument sterile adaptor for engaging a surgical tool and the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system, the sterile adaptor configured to transfer signals between the surgical tool and the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. A method of draping a robotic surgical system, the method comprising:
-
providing a drape including; an exterior surface adjacent to a sterile field for performing a surgical procedure; an interior surface forming a cavity for receiving a non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system; an integral cuff including a permanently turned-up fold of the exterior and interior surfaces at an open end of the cavity and a marker on the permanently turned-up fold designating a sterile side and a non-sterile side of the drape; and an instrument sterile adaptor configured to transfer signals between a surgical tool and the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system; positioning the open end of the cavity at the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system; holding the integral cuff to unfold the drape over the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system; and engaging the instrument sterile adaptor with the surgical tool and the non-sterile portion of the robotic surgical system. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22)
