Detailed Description

In the detailed description, the surgical pad (10) and the method for obtaining said surgical pad (10) are described by way of example only, which is intended to facilitate a better understanding of the invention without producing any limiting effect.

An surgical mat (10) for absorbing bodily fluids in microsurgery, such as brain surgery and spinal cord surgery, basically comprises a head portion (11) and a tail portion (12). The head portion (11) is made of a material enabling the surgical pad (10) to absorb body fluids. The end of the tail portion (12) is connected to the head portion (11) by sewing from a sewing portion (13). The other end of the tail portion (12) is free.

Referring to fig. 5, the head portion (11) includes a lower layer (111) and an upper layer (112) corresponding to the lower layer (111). The upper (112) and lower (111) layers are made of 100% cotton and have a hand-formed geometry. More specifically, the 100% cotton material is pressed cotton or hydrophilic cotton. In a possible embodiment, the head portion (11) can have a square, rectangular or circular shape. An intermediate layer (113) comprising an X-ray detectable material is arranged between the lower layer (111) and the upper layer (112). In a possible embodiment, the X-ray detectable material is an indicator comprising barium oxide or barium ions.

The surgical pad (10) with a rectangular head portion (11) given in fig. 3 is obtained by the following method. First, the press cotton is folded by hand along its length to form an upper layer (112) and a lower layer (111). The press cotton is then cut to a predetermined length from the folded portion by a cutter. Thus, the lower layer (111) and the upper layer (112) are arranged such that they have matching geometries. An intermediate layer (113) is formed between the upper layer (112) and the lower layer (111) by placing an X-ray detectable material. At least one edge portion (15) of the press wool is cut to obtain the final shape and thus a head portion (11). Cotton thread is sewn to the head portion (11) so that the cotton thread is marked with an X-ray detectable material and in this way the tail portion (12) and the head portion (11) are connected to each other. A rectangular surgical pad (10) is thus obtained. Referring to fig. 4, as a final procedure, a plurality of surgical pads (10) are connected by at least one connection point (14), thus providing a bundle of surgical pads (20). The surgical pad bundle (20) has a similar profile to a bunch of grapes. The head portions (11) of the surgical pads (10) in the bundle (20) of surgical pads are at least partially in contact with each other and are positioned in abutment with each other. In a possible embodiment, the surgical pad bundle (20) is provided by connecting at least five surgical pads (10) to each other. The head portion (11) can have any angled geometry, such as square and rectangular.

The surgical mat (10) with a rounded head portion (11) given in fig. 1 is obtained by the following method. First, hydrophilic cotton is manually formed into the geometry of the desired pad size. An X-ray detectable material is placed on the hydrophilic cotton to form an intermediate layer (113). The hydrophilic cotton will form a lower layer (111) and an upper layer (112) of the head portion (11). When the hydrophilic cotton is wrapped around the X-ray detectable material, the X-ray detectable material is positioned between the upper layer (112) and the lower layer (111). Subsequently, when the open end portion (16) of the head portion (11) is sewn, the lower layer (111) and the upper layer (112) are connected to each other. Thus, the head portion (11) forms a disc having an upper layer (112) and a lower layer (111). The end portion (16) is disposed in at least a portion of the perimeter of the hydrophilic cotton. The head portion (11) is obtained when the portion beyond the periphery of the hydrophilic cotton is cut so that the hydrophilic cotton obtains its final shape. The cotton thread is stitched to the head portion (11) such that the cotton thread is marked with an X-ray detectable material and thus the tail portion (12) and the head portion (11) of the surgical pad (10) are connected to each other. Thus obtaining a circular surgical pad (10). Referring to fig. 2, as a final procedure, a plurality of surgical pads (10) are connected by at least one connection point (14), thereby providing a bundle of surgical pads (20). The surgical pad bundle (20) has a similar profile to a bunch of grapes. The head portions (11) of the surgical pads (10) in the bundle (20) of surgical pads are at least partially in contact with each other and are positioned in abutment with each other. In a possible embodiment, the surgical pad bundle (20) is provided by connecting at least five surgical pads (10) to each other. The head portion (11) can have any geometrical shape without angles, for example circular. The surgical pad (10) and the surgical pad bundle (20) obtained by any of the above methods are sterilized, thereby obtaining a surgical pad (10) suitable for use in a surgical operation.
