A new surgical drape support.
A lightweight, malleable surgical drape support attaches to the patient's forehead by sterile tape strips and rests comfortably over the patient's nose. It keeps the surgical drape from occluding the nasal and oral airway of the patient, allowing for comfort as well as observation during an ophthalmic surgical procedure performed under local anesthesia. It is sterilizeable and compact and thus does not impede the surgeon or assistant during microsurgical procedures.
