What is it indicated for?
3L® Surgical Drapes described in this submission are intended to be used to provide an isolating barrier during surgical procedures. The drapes cover the patient and are made of plastic with a protective film that stops fluid strike-through.
The drapes submitted provide an isolator as a vertical barrier to keep the C-arm from the surgical field during hip/femur fracture or trauma procedures, or create a isolating barrier during orthopedic procedures, or provide secure adhesion on drapes for general use, or meet surgical minor procedural needs, or give a sterile surface all of the way to the wound.
Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
