This invention discloses deflector shields to protect an operator from splashing from the use of hand-held ultrasound wound care devices. The deflector shield is for use with an ultrasound generator, ultrasound tip with a radiation surface and a fluid to serve as a coupling medium between the radiation surface and wound surface. The deflector shield is used to protect the operator from splashing fluid and removed tissue. The deflector shield consists of a hub portion and conical portion. The deflector shield is preferably transparent, disposable and easily installed. The deflector shield is preferably useable on several hand-held ultrasound wound care devices.
