A draping system provides a continuous sterile field between a patient
incision area and one or more medical practitioners. The draping system
has a quick release system incorporated into the drape that enables a
medical practitioner to separate from the continuous sterile field
without disrupting the sterile field around the practitioner or the
patient. The draping system may include an abbreviated practitioner gown,
a drain and an integral patient incision area or a flap for extending the
continuous sterile field around to one or more additional operating room
tables. A modular drape and gown system extends the sterile field beyond
the operating table allowing practitioners to couple to the extended
field. A tent provides an enclosed sterile field useful in mobile or
other non operating room surgical environments. Integral lighting and
information displays facilitate field surgical procedures.
