Abstract
A medical cover is comprised of a stretchable ply which is effectively adhered, at least in part, to the patient during use of the cover. The cover comprises a cover body defining top and bottom edges and first and second side edges, an inflatable zone defined by said body and which is defined by a border, at least one inflation port in the inflatable zone, and at least one instrument access port through which surgical instruments can be passed. The inflation port is connectable to a source of a sterile pressurized lifting fluid or gas, such as air or nitrogen. In use, the medical cover forms a dome which defines an enclosed aseptic zone in which the atmosphere can be controlled.
