Spanish term or phrase: Kocher arch
¡Hola a todos!

Estoy traduciendo un manual sobre una mesa de cirugía ginecológica, y no encuentro cómo se dice "arco de Kocher" en inglés.

El texto dice: "Las morsas comunes se utilizan para fijar los siguientes
accesorios: arco de Kocher, hombreras, soportes laterales y
posa brazos."

En el siguiente sitio web se puede ver una foto http://www.pettinari.com.ar/verproducto.php?code=203&tipo=c&... (Es sólo de referencia por la foto, no es lo que estoy traduciendo). El arco de Kocher es la estructura en 90° grados que se ve sobre la mesa.

Por favor, incluir referencias.

Gracias a todos de antemano.

anesthesia scree/"ether screen"
Explanation:
El "arco de Kocher" sirve para separar el anestesista del campo quirúrgico.

anesthesia screen,
a metal frame on upright poles that is used to suspend a sterile barrier separating the surgical field from the anesthetist's access to the patient. Also called ether screen.
http://medical-dictionary.thefreedictionary.com/anesthesia s...

The patient is assisted by an anesthesiologist or resident to make a specific surgical position, then sterile drapes are used to cover all of the patient's body except for the surgical site and the patient's head; the drapes are clipped to a pair of poles near the head of the bed to form an "ether screen", which separates the anesthetist/anesthesiologist's working area (unsterile) from the surgical site (sterile).
