A folded cover which may readily be transported and placed over the tray of a Mayo stand with little likelihood of becoming prematurely unfolded and being contaminated by contact with a non-sterile surface. The Mayo stand cover includes an elongated flat bag of sterilizable sheet material having an open bottom end and a closed top end, and sized to fit over the tray and a portion of the vertical support of the Mayo stand when unfolded. A cuff is formed over a portion of the bag at the open end. Sterile, gloved hands may be placed into the cuff for transporting the cover and slipping the cover over the Mayo stand. The remaining portion of the bag is folded so as to define a folded material portion adjacent to and outside the cuff. An element is provided for retaining the folded material portion in position prior to use of the bag as a cover and for releasing the folded material portion during use of the bag as a cover. In one form, the retaining element is a retaining tape arranged for retaining the folded material portion in position, and the retaining tape has an intermediate tearable portion for releasing the folded material portion. In another form, the retaining element is an adhesive pattern or double-sided adhesive tape.
