Abstract

See full text

A floormat for handling fluids is formed, at least in part, of compressible and resilient material. The topside of the floormat has a spaced plurality of channels feeding one or more gutters. The topside also has a central region and a border region. The central region occupies most of the topside and is substantially flat throughout except for the channels. One or more gutters in the floormat communicate with the distal ends of the channels. One or more discrete outlet gutters in the floormat allow drainage off the floormat. After placing the floormat where a user is expected to stand during the procedure, fluids that fall onto the floormat will flow from the channels to the one or more gutters for removal from one or more discrete locations on the one or more gutters.
