A cystoscopy splash shield for use during surgery in which a large volume of human liquid is involved. The splash shield includes a rectangular shaped transparent plastic sheet with a strip of adhesive along its short edge and a hole present in the approximate middle of the sheet. The short edge of the plastic sheet is affixed to the torso of the patient by the adhesive strip. The remaining portion of the shield is draped over the groin area of the patient with overlap over and between the patient's legs. The shield is positioned so its hole is over the groin area to undergo surgery. A medical optical instrument may be inserted into the hole which is sealed around its circumference. As a result, a physician conducting surgery in the groin area is protected from any splashing fluids from the patient.
Protection contre les éclaboussures (1) s'utilisant dans les opérations chirurgicales cystoscopiques impliquant un volume important de liquide corporel. Ladite protection comprend une feuille rectangulaire en plastique transparent (2) pourvue d'une bande adhésive (4) le long de son bord inférieur et d'un trou situé approximativement dans sa partie médiane. Le bord le plus court de la feuille en plastique est fixé au torse du patient au moyen de la bande adhésive. La partie restante de la protection est placée au-dessus de la région inguinale du patient et dépasse sur ses jambes. La protection est positionnée de façon que son trou (5) se trouve au-dessus de la région inguinale, afin d'effectuer l'opération chirurgicale. On peut insérer un instrument médical optique (3) dans le trou qui est étanchéifié autour de sa circomférence. L'invention permet au chirurgien d'effectuer une opération dans la région inguinale tout en étant protégé des éclaboussures provenant des fluides corporels du patient.
