Abstract
A surgical drape and improved assembly techniques for making the same are provided. The surgical drape has a main body which includes a top edge, a bottom edge and side edges. Portions of the drape define a slit which extends from one of the side edges for a distance into the main body where it terminates. The slit is generally defined by a first slit edge and a second slit edge. A piece of material having a pair of leafs hinged about a common edge is secured to the slit. One of the edges of one of the leafs is secured to the drape near the first slit edge and one of the edges of the other leaf is secured to the drape near the second slit edge.
