A patient surgical drape, single-use, non-sterile is a flat, noninvasive sheet used during surgery to cover part of a patient’s body and isolate a specific area, such as an incision site, from potential contaminants like microbes or fluids. It may also provide basic protection from heat or flame during procedures, though it is not made with specialized heat-reflective or laser-resistant materials.
This category includes devices intended for one-time use that must be sterilized by the user before application, as they are supplied in a non-sterile state. Regulation focuses on their function as a barrier device, with classification and supply requirements based on their intended use and materials, not on sterility at point of sale.
