ABSTRACT:
A stethoscope shield and method for using the same are disclosed. The shield comprises a generally planar piece of material which is sound transmissive such that when the material is attached to the head of a stethoscope, the shield allows the user of the stethoscope to hear inside the patient, while simultaneously preventing contact between the head of the stethoscope and the patient. The shield is preferably held in place by a removable adhesive so as to facilitate application and removal of the shield.
