ABSTRACT:
A transparent shield for the electrode of an electrosurgical device. The shield is designed to prevent the spray of blood and splatter of tissue generated during electrosurgery from being deposited upon the surgeon using the device and is particularly adapted to protect the face and eyes of the surgeon against contact by such airborne fluids and particles. The shield is adapted to be mounted upon a wide variety of electrodes or electrosurgical instruments and may be curved for use with curved electrodes. The shield may also be curved in the transverse direction along its length to better confine spray and splatter.
