Surgical drape for a robotic device

A method for sterile covering of a surgical device including an access port for attachment of a surgical arm, the method comprising:

• deploying a drape including an opening formed as a cut-out in said drape to cover the surgical device while exposing the access port via the opening;
• affixing the drape onto the surgical device such that said opening is maintained in alignment with said access port, providing consistent access to said access port;
• attaching said surgical arm to said surgical device via said access port, and
• covering said access port with a second drape or drape portion such that only said surgical arm protrudes therefrom.

A kit comprising:

• a motor unit for actuating a surgical arm, said motor unit comprising an access port for assembly of said surgical arm;
• and
• a surgical drape comprising:
• a drape body including an opening which is aligned with said access port when said drape is deployed onto said motor unit;
• and
• a portion shaped and sized to substantially cover said access port following assembly of said surgical arm, while allowing the assembled surgical arm to protrude outwardly from said motor unit.
