Abstract
Medical devices include a rigid dome, a viewing window, a vacuum port, a vacuum pressure regulator, an aperture, and a septum. The rigid dome is hemispherical and includes a first dome stage, a second dome stage distal on the first dome stage, and a transition between the first dome stage and the second dome stage. The viewing window is acoustically and\or optically transparent to allow for inspection of the surgical site. The vacuum port allows for a reduction of a pressure on the interior of the rigid dome. The vacuum pressure regulator regulates the pressure on the interior of the rigid dome. The aperture provides access to the interior of the rigid dome and the surgical site. The septum engages with the second dome stage to allow for insertion of a surgical instrument with resistance to loss of the pressure on the interior of the rigid dome.
