Surgical table pad with fluid waste channel

摘要

The present invention provides a surgical table pad of simple design that insulates a patient from a surgical table to help maintain temperature and prevent rapid loss of body heat that may cause complications for the patient. The surgical table pad includes a drainage channel to allow body fluids resulting from the surgery to flow into the drainage channel. The surgical table pad includes a series of air passages in communication with each other and with a vent opening to exhaust air within the surgical table pad to ensure more body contact between the patient and the foam pads. The surgical table pad further includes handle-receiving openings along opposed sides so that, when handles are inserted into the openings, the patient can simply be lifted from the operating table while remaining on the surgical table pad.
