A device for preventing development of infections includes a surgical drape in which a window, through which an incision may be made, is formed. The window defines borders having an inner face a first layer of a material, covering the inner face of the borders, the first layer being configured to absorb incision secretions and a second layer, covering the inner face of the borders, the second layer being impregnated with an antiseptic haemostatic ingredient, the second layer partially covering the first layer, the first layer being wider than the second layer. The second layer is arranged to come into contact with incision margins and cover a top part and a bottom part of an incision during installation of a spacer.
